Water: Alpine laurels thrives in arid conditions with high drought tolerance, requiring hydration every 2-3 weeks. It's best suited for outdoor growth, benefiting from natural rainfall, particularly in aligned climate zones, reducing the need for supplemental watering.

Propagation: Alpine laurels can be propagated using seeds or cuttings. Seed germination requires stratification, while cuttings benefit from rooting hormones. Both methods need proper light, temperature, and well-draining soil. Common challenges include seed dormancy and rooting consistency. Keep soil moist but not waterlogged for best results.
