Care Guide for Planchonella

Every 2-3 weeks

Water

Water: Planchonella thrives with moderate hydration and demonstrates drought tolerance, requiring watering every 2-3 weeks. Ensure soil dries between waterings for optimal health. Typically grown outdoors, planchonella aligns its growth with water availability, slowing down during dry periods to conserve resources.

Propagation: The main propagation method for planchonella is via seeds, needing warm temperatures, humidity, and well-draining soil. Collect mature seeds, clean, and treat for dormancy. Sow in a seed mix and maintain moisture and humidity until germination, then transplant seedlings as they grow.
