Water: Adromischus inamoenus requires careful watering based on plant state and weather, not a fixed schedule. In hot or dormant conditions, reduce watering to every 1-2 weeks. Water in the evening during summer, observe soil moisture, and note pot type for watering frequency adjustments.

Fertilize: Most plants like adromischus inamoenus thrive in poor conditions and typically do not require fertilization. A small amount of slow-release fertilizer can be added in early summer, but none is necessary. Avoid fertilizing during dormancy to prevent nutrient damage.

Pruning: Adromischus inamoenus is a unique succulent characterized by thick leaves and a low profile. Prune in early spring using clean tools to promote healthy growth and maintain shape. Light, regular trimming is recommended, as excessive pruning can negatively affect the plant's health.

Propagation: Propagating adromischus inamoenus is often done through leaf cuttings rather than seeds. In spring or fall, cut a healthy leaf, place it on slightly humid soil, and ensure a temperature of 25℃ (77°F) with bright, scattered light. A bud will typically appear in one to two weeks.
