Water: Securinega prefers conditions similar to its native habitat, experiencing sporadic rainfall. It is drought-tolerant, needing minimal water after establishment. Water once every 2-3 weeks, allowing soil to dry in between. Its temperature resilience is key to its water retention during growth cycles.

Propagation: Propagation of securinega involves seed sowing and cuttings, requiring sunlight, warmth, and well-draining soil. Seed germination may need stratification or scarification. It is moderately challenging due to dormancy and sensitivity during root development; maintain moisture and indirect light while acclimatizing after root establishment.
