Water: Cojoba thrives in tropical climates, requiring consistent moisture and adapted to dry spells. Water every two weeks to maintain hydration without oversaturation. As an evergreen, cojoba retains water in its foliage, essential for its year-round greenery, especially in fluctuating indoor humidity.

Propagation: Propagation of cojoba involves seed sowing or cuttings, requiring warm temperatures, high humidity, and well-draining soil. Enhance germination with scarification or soaking. For seeds, use a warm medium with moisture and indirect light; for cuttings, apply rooting hormone and maintain consistent humidity.
