Water: Adapted to periodic dry spells, mabea is drought-tolerant and prefers dry periods between watering, about every 2-3 weeks. Typically grown outdoors, it responds to varying climate zones that affect its water uptake and growth cycle.

Propagation: Propagating mabea involves seed sowing or cuttings, requiring adequate light, temperature, and well-draining soil. Treating seeds or cuttings can enhance rooting and reduce disease. The propagation process is moderately difficult, requiring consistent moisture and bright, indirect light until seedlings or cuttings are ready for transplanting.
