Water: Dorycnium prefers consistent moisture and should be watered weekly to maintain even soil moisture without waterlogging. It is moderately drought-tolerant but thrives in higher humidity. When container growing, ensure pots have proper drainage to avoid root rot.

Propagation: Dorycnium propagation involves seeds, cuttings, or division. Key factors include light, temperature, and well-draining soil. Process: 1) Scarify seeds, sow in spring with moisture. 2) Take cuttings in late spring, use rooting hormone in sandy soil. 3) Divide in early spring or fall, replant immediately.
