Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Raphionacme arabica is drought-tolerant and prone to root rot if overwatered. Water thoroughly when the top 5-10 cm of soil feels dry.

Reduce watering significantly during its dormant period in winter to prevent rot.

Minimal pruning is typically required. Remove any dead or damaged stems at any time. If you wish to control its size or shape, prune sparingly in spring before new growth begins.

Heavy pruning is not recommended as it can stress the plant.

Propagation is primarily done through seeds, which require specific conditions to germinate. Cuttings can also be taken, but they are often difficult to root.

Allow cuttings to callus for a few days before planting in well-draining soil. Patience is key with this species.

Repot Raphionacme arabica only when it has become severely root-bound, which is infrequent due to its slow growth. Use a gritty, well-draining potting mix. Repot in spring before the active growing season.

Handle the root system gently to avoid damage.
