Water Glechoma grandis thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot. Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogged conditions.
Reduce watering frequency during the cooler winter months.
Prune Glechoma grandis to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Trim back leggy stems and remove any dead or damaged foliage as needed.
Light pruning can be done at any time, while heavier pruning is best in late spring after flowering.
Glechoma grandis is easily propagated from stem cuttings. Take 5-10 cm cuttings from healthy stems and plant them in moist potting mix. Keep the cuttings in a warm location with bright, indirect light.
Roots typically form within a few weeks.
Repot Glechoma grandis every 1-2 years, or when it becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one, with good drainage holes. Use a well-draining potting mix.
Repotting is best done in early spring before new growth begins.
