Water Boronia algida regularly, ensuring the soil remains consistently moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top 2-3 cm of soil to dry out between waterings, especially during warmer months.

Reduce watering slightly in winter to prevent root rot. Good drainage is crucial for this species.

Prune Boronia algida lightly after flowering to maintain shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove any dead or crossing branches.

Avoid heavy pruning, as this can stimulate new growth that may not harden off sufficiently before winter. Pinching back young shoots can also promote a more compact habit.

Propagation is best achieved through semi-hardwood cuttings taken in late spring or early summer. Use a rooting hormone and plant in a well-draining, sterile propagation mix. Maintain high humidity and warmth.

Germination from seed is possible but can be slow and requires specific stratification techniques.

Repot Boronia algida every 2-3 years, or when root-bound, preferably in spring. Use a well-draining potting mix, ideally containing a good proportion of sandy loam and organic matter.

Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one to avoid overwatering issues. Handle roots gently.
