Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering is the most common cause of death for Aloidendron dichotomum.

Reduce watering significantly during cooler months to prevent root rot, especially if grown in less than ideal conditions.

Pruning is generally not required for Aloidendron dichotomum as it naturally develops an attractive, branching form. If necessary, remove dead or damaged branches to maintain shape or improve air circulation.

Use clean, sharp tools and make cuts just above a growth node.

Propagation is typically done from seeds, which require warm conditions and consistent moisture to germinate. Cuttings can also be taken but are slower to root and prone to rot.

Use well-draining soil and allow cuttings to callus over before planting.

Repot Aloidendron dichotomum only when necessary, typically every 2-3 years, or when the plant has outgrown its container. Use a gritty, well-draining cactus or succulent mix.

Choose a pot only slightly larger than the current one, as they prefer to be slightly root-bound.
