Genista albida prefers to dry out slightly between waterings. Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid waterlogged conditions, which can lead to root rot.

Reduce watering significantly in winter when the plant is dormant to prevent overhydration.

Prune Genista albida after flowering in late spring or early summer to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches.

Light pruning can be done to control size, but avoid cutting back into old wood as it may not regrow.

Propagation is typically done by semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer. Dip cuttings in rooting hormone and plant in a well-draining medium.

Alternatively, seeds can be sown in spring after a period of cold stratification. Germination can be slow and erratic.

Repot Genista albida only when necessary, usually every 2-3 years, in spring before new growth begins. Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a mix for cacti or succulents, or add grit to a standard potting mix.

Ensure the new pot has adequate drainage holes.
