Water: Rinorea , originating from moisture and drought-balanced environments, absorbs water efficiently and tolerates drought. Water every 2-3 weeks, letting soil dry slightly. Indoors, periodic misting enhances humidity, supporting its evergreen foliage and natural growth cycle.

Propagation: Propagation of rinorea can be done via seeds or cuttings. Success hinges on bright indirect light, warmth, and well-draining soil. Germination needs consistent moisture, benefiting from scarification. For seeds, lightly scarify and keep moist; for cuttings, use semi-hardwood and maintain high humidity.
