- Fertilization: Feed Kaner with a balanced fertilizer in spring to promote healthy growth and blooming.

- Pest and Disease Control: Kaner is relatively resistant to pests and diseases but may occasionally be affected by aphids, scale insects, or fungal diseases. Monitor the plant regularly and treat any issues promptly.
Caution:
- Toxicity: All parts of the Kaner plant, including leaves, stems, and flowers, contain toxic compounds called cardiac glycosides, which can be harmful if ingested. Keep children and pets away from the plant, and handle with care when pruning or handling.
