Water: Erithalis excels in low-water conditions due to drought tolerance, needing watering once every 2-3 weeks after root establishment. Thriving in sandy soils typical of coastal regions, erithalis avoids root rot thanks to excellent drainage and minimal moisture retention.

Propagation: Propagation of erithalis can be done via seeds or stem cuttings. Key requirements include partial to full sun, warmth, well-draining soil, and high humidity. Steps involve obtaining seeds or cuttings, sowing or rooting in suitable conditions, and ensuring proper light and water until established.
