Ozothamnus adnatus prefers well-drained soil and can tolerate short periods of dryness once established. Water moderately during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings.

Reduce watering in winter to prevent root rot. Ensure good drainage to avoid waterlogging.

Prune Ozothamnus adnatus after flowering to maintain shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove spent flower heads and any dead or damaged branches. Light annual pruning is generally sufficient.

Avoid heavy pruning into old wood, as it may not regrow well.

Propagate Ozothamnus adnatus from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer. Dip cuttings in rooting hormone and plant them in a well-draining medium, such as a mix of peat and perlite.

Keep moist and in a warm, humid environment until roots develop.

Repot Ozothamnus adnatus every 2-3 years in spring, or when the plant becomes root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one.

Ensure the new pot has adequate drainage holes.
