Water Pluchea X regularly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot. Ensure good drainage in pots and the garden. Reduce watering frequency during winter dormancy.

Prune Pluchea X in early spring before new growth begins to shape the plant and encourage bushier growth. Remove any dead or damaged stems at any time.

Light trimming can be done after flowering to maintain a tidy appearance.

Propagate Pluchea X from stem cuttings taken in late spring or early summer. Dip the cut end in rooting hormone and plant in a well-draining potting mix.

Keep the cuttings moist and in a warm location with bright, indirect light until roots form.

Repot Pluchea X every 2-3 years or when it becomes root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one.

Repotting is best done in spring before the active growing season begins.
