Water thoroughly when the soil is completely dry. Reduce watering significantly during the winter dormancy period to prevent root rot.

Ensure good drainage to avoid waterlogged conditions, which are detrimental to this succulent's health. Overwatering is the most common cause of failure.

Pruning is generally not required for Aylostera azurduyensis unless removing dead or damaged stems. If propagation is desired, stems can be removed with a clean knife or scissors.

Disinfect tools after use to prevent disease transmission. Avoid excessive trimming, as it can stress the plant.

Easily propagated from offsets or stem cuttings. Allow cuttings to callus over for a few days before planting in well-draining cactus mix. Offsets can be gently detached and potted up.

Both methods thrive in bright, indirect light and moderate temperatures with minimal watering until established.

Repot every 2-3 years, or when the plant outgrows its container. Use a gritty, well-draining cactus potting mix. Choose a pot slightly larger than the current one with drainage holes.

Repot in spring, just before the active growing season, and water sparingly afterward.
