Pouzolzia hirta prefers consistently moist soil but can tolerate short periods of dryness. Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid waterlogging, as this can lead to root rot.

Reduce watering slightly during cooler, dormant periods.

Prune Pouzolzia hirta to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Pinch back the tips of new shoots regularly. Remove any dead, damaged, or leggy stems at any time of year.

Heavy pruning can be done in early spring before new growth begins.

Propagate Pouzolzia hirta from stem cuttings. Take 7-10 cm cuttings from healthy stems in spring or summer. Dip the cut end in rooting hormone and plant in a well-draining potting mix.

Keep moist and warm until roots develop.

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

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