Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged during the growing season. Reduce watering in fall and winter, allowing the top few centimeters of soil to dry out between waterings.

Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.

Prune in early spring before new growth emerges to remove any dead, damaged, or crossing stems. You can also deadhead spent flowers to maintain a tidy appearance. Heavy pruning is generally not required.

Propagate shredded umbrella plants by division in early spring. Carefully divide the root ball into sections, ensuring each section has roots and shoots. Replant the divisions in well-draining soil, and water thoroughly.

Repot your Syneilesis palmata every 2-3 years in spring, or when it becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one and use a well-draining potting mix. Water well after repotting.
