Water: Uapaca flourishes in semi-arid conditions with minimal moisture, tolerating drought and preferring dry climates. It requires watering every 2-3 weeks, ideally grown outdoors to benefit from natural rainfall, and demonstrates resilience across varying temperatures during the growing season.

Propagation: Uapaca can be propagated through seed sowing or cuttings, requiring warm temperatures, indirect sunlight, and well-draining soil. Seed scarification or stratification may improve germination. The process involves collecting seeds or cuttings, treating them, planting in suitable medium, maintaining moisture, and transplanting once established.
