Water: Originating from Southeast Asia, keteleeria prefers well-draining soil and consistent moisture, with watering every 1-2 weeks. Once established, it shows moderate drought tolerance. Typically grown outdoors in full sun, keteleeria adapts to temperate climates and benefits from mulching to retain moisture.

Propagation: To propagate keteleeria, sow seeds after they mature. Key factors for success include adequate light, optimal temperatures (20-25°C / 68-77°F), and well-draining soil. Stratify seeds for dormancy, maintain moisture, and transplant established seedlings. Propagation is moderately difficult due to seed availability and germination issues.
