Propagation: Propagating peraxilla requires seed sowing or cuttings, focusing on light, temperature, and well-draining soil. Challenges like seed dormancy and rooting issues exist. For cuttings, take a stem, use rooting hormone, plant in peat-perlite mix, maintain humidity and indirect light, then transplant after roots develop.
