Care Guide for Condea

Every 2-3 weeks

Water

Water: Condea prefers dry soil between waterings, requiring irrigation every 2-3 weeks. Thriving in semi-arid conditions, it requires well-draining soil and full sun exposure to enhance drought tolerance and prevent root rot. Ideal for outdoor settings in drier climates.

Propagation: Condea can be propagated from seeds, cuttings, or division. Key factors include adequate light, warmth, and well-draining soil. For cuttings, a healthy 4-6 inch stem segment should be used, treated with rooting hormone, and maintained in humid conditions for 4-6 weeks to develop roots.
