Water: Stellatum prefers moist, well-drained environments, requiring consistent moisture but capable of withstanding short dry spells. Weekly watering prevents waterlogging, while rainwater supports its natural irrigation cycle and promotes lush foliage growth.

Pruning: Stellatum benefits from spring pruning by removing dead stems for healthier growth. Pinching new shoots promotes bushiness, while rejuvenation pruning of old stems maintains vigor. Proper techniques enhance blooming, prevent disease, and control shape. Refer to reliable sources for best practices.

Propagation: Stellatum belongs to the Primulaceae family and reproduces vegetatively. For propagation, use healthy stem cuttings in nutrient-rich soil, ensuring cut ends are covered. Maintain stable conditions with indirect light and moisture to promote root growth, regularly assessing care for healthy establishment.
