Water: Hosackia thrives in environments that replicate its native habitat, requiring consistent moisture without over-watering. Weekly watering is optimal for health. While adaptable to various soils, hosackia prefers well-draining substrates to prevent root rot during heavy rains.

Propagation: Hosackia propagation involves seed sowing, cuttings, or division. Successful growth requires suitable light, temperature, and well-draining soil. Use scarified seeds in spring or cuttings from new growth in early summer, rooting in sandy mix with moderate moisture and bright, indirect light. Monitor root development.
