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

Ensure good drainage to avoid waterlogged conditions, as this plant is susceptible to fungal diseases.

Prune Helichrysum fulgens lightly after flowering to maintain a compact shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove any dead or faded flower heads to promote further blooms.

Harder pruning can be done in early spring to shape the plant and remove any winter damage.

Propagate Helichrysum fulgens from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer or from seed sown in spring. Cuttings should be rooted in a well-draining medium in a warm environment.

Seeds require light for germination and should be kept moist and at a moderate temperature.

Repot Helichrysum fulgens every 2-3 years, or when the plant becomes root-bound. Use a well-draining compost mix, such as a cactus or succulent mix. Repotting is best done in spring before new growth begins.

Ensure the new pot has adequate drainage holes.
