Water: Fraxinus platypoda thrives in moderate moisture regions and shows significant drought tolerance. It requires modest watering every 2-3 weeks and is generally grown outdoors. This species exhibits resilience against varying rainfall patterns in temperate climates.

Fertilize: Fraxinus platypoda thrives in infertile soil but benefits from adequate nutrients. Use a slow-release fertilizer (10:10:10) annually in fall, ensuring ample watering afterward for nutrient absorption. Fertilize in late summer if planted in spring or the following spring if planted in fall to avoid root burn.

Pruning: Fraxinus platypoda benefits from early spring pruning, which includes thinning cuts to improve air circulation and heading cuts to shape growth. This practice reduces stress, manages size, prevents disease, and encourages vigorous blooming, resulting in a healthy and attractive plant.

Propagation: Fraxinus platypoda can be propagated through cuttings by selecting healthy stems and using rooting hormone to promote root growth. A well-draining medium, consistent moisture, and protection from stress are essential during rooting. Careful handling and aftercare lead to successful propagation of fraxinus platypoda.
