Water: Adapted to arid environments, rocklettuces thrives with minimal watering, requiring only weekly supplemental moisture. Preferring drier conditions, it benefits from natural rain patterns, making it ideal for xeriscaping or rock gardens due to its drought tolerance and ability to thrive on infrequent rainfall.

Propagation: Propagation of rocklettuces is achieved through seed sowing and cuttings. Key factors include full sun, well-draining soil, and moderate temperatures. For seeds, cold stratify if needed before spring sowing. Cuttings should be taken in early summer, treated with rooting hormone, and kept moist until rooted.
