Water:
Anneslea fragrans thrives in humid environments, prefers consistent humidity, and is moderately drought-tolerant. Water anneslea fragrans every 2-3 weeks, adjusting for ambient temperature and growth season, as it may need more frequent hydration during active growth.
Fertilize:
Anneslea fragrans requires balanced nutrition for optimal growth. In spring and summer, use high nitrogen fertilizer monthly, then quarterly in fall and sparingly in winter. Observe anneslea fragrans's response to adjust the regimen, and dilute fertilizers for young plants to prevent root burn.
Pruning:
Anneslea fragrans thrives with pruning in early to late winter, focusing on removing dead branches, thinning crowded areas, and shaping for growth. This minimizes stress during dormancy, maintains health, enhances flowering, and controls size for optimal shaping. Consult horticultural guides for more on anneslea fragrans.
Propagation:
Anneslea fragrans can be propagated via semi-hardwood cuttings from a healthy plant. Dip the cut end in rooting hormone, place it in well-draining soil, and maintain high humidity and indirect light. Monitor moisture levels to prevent rot, fostering optimal growth and establishment.
