Water moderately during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Reduce watering significantly during the dormant period in winter to prevent root rot.

Ensure good drainage to avoid waterlogged conditions, which this plant dislikes.

Pruning is generally not required for Drimia acarophylla. Remove any dead or damaged leaves as they appear to maintain a tidy appearance.

If the plant becomes overcrowded, division during repotting can manage its size and encourage vigor.

Propagation is primarily done through division of offsets or bulbils during repotting. Seeds can also be sown, but germination can be slow and erratic.

Offsets should be allowed to dry for a day or two before planting in well-draining soil.

Repot every 2-3 years, or when the pot becomes crowded, ideally in spring. Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a cactus or succulent blend.

Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current root ball to avoid overwatering.
