Key traits and growing stats from plant data
Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top centimeter of soil to dry out slightly between waterings.
Reduce watering during the dormant season, typically in cooler months, but never let the soil become completely dry.
Prune to maintain a desired shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove any leggy or yellowing stems by cutting them back to a healthy node. Pinching back the tips of young plants can help create a fuller appearance.
Easily propagated from stem cuttings. Take 5-10 cm cuttings from healthy stems and remove the lower leaves. Insert the cut ends into moist potting mix or water. Roots typically form within a few weeks.
Repot your Murdannia audreyae every 1-2 years, or when it becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one.
Use a well-draining potting mix and repot in the spring before the active growing season begins.
