Water: Treasure maesa flourishes in moderately humid environments, requiring slightly moist soil without waterlogging. Water every 2-3 weeks, allowing partial drying between sessions. As a predominantly indoor plant, misting can enhance humidity during dry spells, supporting healthy foliage growth.
Fertilize: Treasure maesa thrives with balanced, monthly fertilization in spring/summer, and every 6-8 weeks during fall/winter. Administer half-strength doses to avoid over-fertilization. Adjust feeding frequency based on plant size and seasonal changes, ensuring soil is watered before applying fertilizer for optimal health and vigor.
Pruning: Treasure maesa is characterized by a dense, shrubby form and glossy leaves. Prune in winter to remove dead or diseased branches, allowing for better air circulation and maintaining health. Light shaping enhances its form, while severe cuts encourage vigorous regrowth and improve ornamental qualities.
Propagation: Treasure maesa is propagated via cuttings, utilizing healthy shoots treated with rooting hormones. Place them in well-draining soil under consistent humidity and temperature, with indirect light. Regular monitoring for pests and disease is essential to ensure healthy propagation.
