Water: Originating from tropical regions, fagraea prefers high humidity and evenly moist, well-drained soil. Water every two weeks to prevent root saturation. As an evergreen, it thrives indoors; regular misting helps maintain lush foliage reminiscent of its natural humid climate.

Propagation: Primary propagation methods for fagraea are seed sowing and stem cuttings, requiring high humidity, warmth, and well-draining soil. Scarification enhances seed germination, and rooting hormone aids cuttings. Successful propagation necessitates consistent care due to slow germination and rooting.
