Water: Oreoseris henryi thrives in moderate watering, requiring consistent soil moisture without waterlogging. It prefers evenly moist conditions, ideally watered weekly. Grown outdoors, it benefits from humidity during the growing season, simulating its native climate's rainfall patterns.

Fertilize: Oreoseris henryi requires balanced nutrition for healthy growth. Fertilize quarterly during active growth using granular or liquid forms at half strength, reducing during dormancy. Water soil before fertilizing to improve nutrient uptake and avoid root shock while preventing nutrient burn.

Pruning: Oreoseris henryi features unique foliage and colorful blooms. Prune in early to late spring, first removing dead or diseased branches and then thinning overcrowded areas for better airflow. Cutting back a third of older stems rejuvenates the plant, promoting healthy growth aligned with its growth cycle.

Propagation: Oreoseris henryi is propagated via cuttings; select healthy stems for better success. Use a well-draining soil mix and ensure cuttings have leaves to sustain growth while removing lower leaves to avoid rot. Maintain consistent moisture without waterlogging for optimal root development.
