How to Grow and Care for Hymenolepis

Hymenolepis thrives in well-drained soil and requires minimal watering, making it a low-maintenance plant. Ensure it receives moderate sunlight, as too much direct exposure can harm its foliage. A key special care point is to watch for overwatering—allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings to prevent root rot. Regular pruning is beneficial to maintain its shape and promote healthy growth.
