Water: Chukrasia thrives in humid, tropical climates and requires a balance of hydration, exhibiting moderate drought tolerance. Water every 2-3 weeks, allowing partial soil drying. Outdoor growth is influenced by the rainy season, aligning with its natural growth cycle for optimal foliage health.

Propagation: Propagating chukrasia involves seed sowing, semi-hardwood cuttings, or grafting, with warm temperatures, well-draining soil, and high humidity being essential. Seeds require pre-treatment, and cuttings benefit from rooting hormones. Challenges include seed viability and rooting consistency, making the process moderately difficult.
