Enkianthus nudipes prefers consistently moist soil. Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry. Avoid waterlogged conditions, which can lead to root rot.

Reduce watering slightly during winter dormancy, but do not allow the soil to dry out completely.

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

Avoid heavy pruning, as this can reduce the plant's floral display in the following year. Thinning out crowded stems can improve air circulation.

Enkianthus nudipes can be propagated from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in mid-summer. Insert cuttings into a well-draining, moist potting mix. Rooting may take several weeks to months.

Alternatively, seeds can be sown in autumn, but germination is often slow and erratic.

Repot young Enkianthus nudipes every 2-3 years, or when rootbound, typically in early spring before new growth emerges. Use a well-draining, acidic potting mix.

Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one. Mature plants may only need repotting every 4-5 years.
