Water: Originating from areas with moderate humidity, evergreen lindera thrives in similar environments. It requires weekly watering to maintain optimal health, balancing moisture without excess dampness. As an evergreen plant, evergreen lindera retains foliage year-round, making it less sensitive to seasonal watering fluctuations.

Fertilize: Evergreen lindera thrives with quarterly fertilization using balanced nutrition, switching to high-nitrogen formulas during active growth. Reduce application frequency during dormancy to prevent root burn. Proper dosages according to growth stages ensure vibrant health while avoiding excess that could harm the plant.

Pruning: Evergreen lindera is an evergreen shrub requiring early to late winter pruning for shape and health. Remove dead or crossing branches to improve airflow and light penetration. This promotes robust growth, flowering, and fruiting. Check local guidelines for specific care recommendations.

Propagation: Evergreen lindera can be propagated effectively using cuttings, preferably non-flowering and semi-hardwood from the current year. Maintain humidity and soil moisture without saturation. Applying rooting hormone aids growth. Gradually acclimate rooted plants to outdoor conditions before transplanting.
