Thorow wax vary wildly, growing in shrub or herbaceous forms and maxing out anywhere between 3 cm and 3 m in height. They are easy to grow and those that flower are popular pollinators. Those blossoms consist of a compound of small flowers adorned with small leaf-like structures that can be large in some species. The flowers in this genus are usually yellow or yellow-green, and they will usually be covered in insects.
Water:
Thorow wax thrives in balanced moisture, preferring consistent hydration without waterlogging. It withstands moderate drought but flourishes with weekly watering for even soil moisture. Often grown indoors, thorow wax's growth and vitality depend on proper watering, especially during its active growing season.
Propagation:
Thorow wax is propagated by seed sowing requiring cold stratification. Optimal growth occurs in full sun with moderate temperatures and well-draining soil. Steps include refrigerating seeds for 2-4 weeks, sowing, covering lightly, keeping moist, and providing light, with transplanting when seedlings are manageable.
