Water: Burbidgea thrives in humid tropical conditions, preferring regular watering without waterlogging. It balances drought tolerance with a humidity need, requiring weekly hydration. Indoor environments with higher humidity, like conservatories or bathrooms, are ideal for mimicking its natural habitat.

Propagation: To propagate burbidgea, use seed sowing or division. Key factors include proper light, temperature, and well-draining soil. Maintain high humidity and avoid direct sunlight. Steps: collect seeds or divide rhizomes, sow in a light mix, keep moist in indirect light, and ensure warmth for germination.
