Agonandra brasiliensis prefers consistently moist soil but dislikes waterlogged conditions. Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry to the touch.

Reduce watering during cooler, dormant periods to prevent root rot. Ensure good drainage to avoid excess moisture.

Prune Agonandra brasiliensis to maintain desired shape and size, and to remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches.

Light pruning can be done anytime, but heavier pruning is best performed in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. This encourages bushier growth.

Agonandra brasiliensis can be propagated from seeds, which require stratification. Semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer can also be rooted under humid conditions with the aid of rooting hormone.

Patience is key, as germination and rooting can be slow for this species.

Repot Agonandra brasiliensis every 2-3 years, or when it becomes root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a blend of potting soil, perlite, and sand. Repotting is best done in spring.

Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one.
