Water Anaphalis aristata moderately during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Reduce watering significantly in autumn and winter to prevent waterlogged roots, which can lead to rot.

Ensure good drainage to maintain healthy growth.

Prune Anaphalis aristata back by about half its height in late spring or early summer to encourage bushier growth and more flowers. Remove dead or faded flower heads throughout the season to maintain appearance and potentially encourage reblooming.

Propagate Anaphalis aristata by division in spring as new growth emerges. Carefully separate clumps of established plants, ensuring each division has roots and shoots.

Replant divisions immediately into well-draining soil. Stem cuttings can also be taken in late spring.

Repot Anaphalis aristata every 2-3 years, or when the plant becomes root-bound, typically in early spring before new growth starts.

Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one and ensure it has adequate drainage holes. Use a well-draining potting mix.
