Water: Heptacodium thrives in moderate moisture environments and can tolerate brief droughts. It requires weekly watering for optimal health. With a strong root system, heptacodium efficiently absorbs water during growing seasons, ensuring hydration despite inconsistent rainfall.
Propagation: Propagation of heptacodium can be done via softwood cuttings and seeds, requiring well-draining soil, warm temperatures, and dappled sunlight. Cuttings should be taken in early summer, treated with rooting hormone, and kept in high humidity and indirect light until roots develop before transplanting.
