Soil Type

Water: Originating from moderate climates, globularia prefers a consistent watering regime, thriving when soil dries slightly between waterings. Weekly watering prevents over-saturation. Best grown outdoors, globularia flourishes in well-draining soil, which supports its water cycle and protects against root rot in rainy seasons.

Propagation: Globularia propagates via seeds, cuttings, or division. Key factors for success include moderate light, well-draining soil, and warm temperatures. Techniques vary: seeds may require stratification, cuttings benefit from rooting hormone, and division should coincide with growth phases. The process can be moderately challenging.
