Water Cassinia aureonitens regularly during its active growing season, ensuring the soil dries out slightly between waterings. Reduce watering significantly in winter, allowing the soil to become quite dry.

Overwatering can lead to root rot, especially in cooler months.

Prune Cassinia aureonitens after flowering to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches.

Light pruning can be done in early spring to shape the plant before new growth begins. Avoid heavy pruning into old wood.

Propagate Cassinia aureonitens from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer. Root cuttings in a well-draining propagation mix, keeping them consistently moist and in a warm, humid environment.

Successful rooting typically occurs within a few weeks. Seeds can also be sown in spring.

Repot Cassinia aureonitens every 2-3 years, or when root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix, preferably one containing grit or perlite. Repot in spring before new growth starts.

Choose a pot only slightly larger than the current one to avoid waterlogging.
