Berula erecta thrives in consistently wet conditions, mimicking its natural aquatic habitat.

Ensure the soil is always saturated, ideally with the plant's base submerged in shallow water (up to 5 cm deep) or planted in waterlogged soil.

Avoid letting the substrate dry out, as this will stress the plant and hinder its growth.

Pruning is primarily for aesthetic purposes and to manage spread. Remove any yellowing or decaying leaves at the base to maintain plant health and appearance.

If the plant becomes too dense, you can thin it out by removing some stems. Avoid heavy pruning, as it can shock the plant.

Propagation is easily achieved through division or stem cuttings. In spring or summer, carefully divide established clumps into smaller sections, ensuring each section has roots.

Alternatively, take stem cuttings from healthy plants, root them in water or moist soil, and transplant once established.

Repotting is typically only necessary if the plant outgrows its container or if it's being moved to a new location, usually in spring.

Use a large, aquatic-specific pot with heavy, nutrient-poor soil or aquatic substrate. Ensure the pot has drainage holes if planting in a pond setting, but allow for water retention.
