Water: Bursaria thrives in dry climates, requiring minimal supplemental watering approximately every three weeks. As a drought-tolerant species, it is resilient and best suited for outdoor cultivation in temperate climates where natural rainfall suffices without frequent irrigation.

Propagation: Propagation of bursaria occurs via seeds and cuttings, requiring full sun to partial shade and well-draining soil. Softwood cuttings are taken in spring or semi-hardwood in late summer. Stratify seeds for 1-2 months, then sow in moist soil, keeping consistent moisture for establishment.
