Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Pulicaria undulata prefers consistently moist soil but can tolerate occasional dryness. Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.
Reduce watering frequency during cooler months when the plant's growth slows down.
Prune Pulicaria undulata after flowering to maintain a tidy shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove dead, faded, or damaged stems. Cutting back by about one-third can invigorate the plant.
Regular deadheading of spent flowers will promote more blooms throughout the season.
Pulicaria undulata can be propagated by seeds sown in spring, or by stem cuttings taken in late spring or early summer. Cuttings should be at least 10 cm long and planted in a well-draining potting mix.
Seeds can be sown in a tray of seed compost and kept moist and warm.
Repot Pulicaria undulata every 2-3 years, or when the plant becomes root-bound. Spring is the ideal time for repotting. Use a slightly larger pot with fresh, well-draining potting mix.
Ensure the new pot has adequate drainage holes to prevent water accumulation.
