Water moderately when the top inch of soil feels dry. Avoid waterlogging, especially during dormancy. Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.

Reduce watering significantly in late fall and winter when the plant is less active.

Prune lightly after flowering to remove spent flower stalks and encourage bushier growth. Avoid heavy pruning. Deadheading can prevent self-seeding if this is not desired.

Minimal pruning is generally best for this species.

Propagate by seed sown in early spring, often requiring stratification. Successful establishment can be challenging due to its hemiparasitic nature. Cuttings are generally difficult and not a common propagation method.

Repot young plants only when root-bound, ideally in early spring before active growth begins. Use a well-draining, lean soil mix.

Avoid disturbing the roots excessively, as this species can be sensitive to transplant shock.
