Oligomeris is characterized by its slender, erect stems and simple, linear leaves which give it a grass-like appearance. Often found in arid or saline environments, oligomeris adapts by maintaining minimal foliage, reducing water loss. Flowering stems produce small, white to pale pink blossoms that add a subtle charm to its resilient form.
Water:
Oligomeris adapts well to arid conditions, preferring moderate hydration with weekly watering. Ideal for outdoor cultivation and xeriscaping, it thrives in diverse soil types with good drainage to avoid root rot.
Propagation:
Propagation of oligomeris primarily involves seeds, requiring well-draining sandy soil, controlled temperature, and proper light. Stratification may be needed for cold-climate species. Key steps include collecting seeds, sowing, consistent moisture, bright indirect light, and maintaining 15-20°C (59-68°F) for successful germination.
