Basic care for xysmalobium involves moderation: indirect light to partial shade suits them best, with well-draining soil to prevent root rot. They require consistent but not excessive watering, maintaining a balance that keeps the soil moist without being waterlogged. Temperature-wise, xysmalobium prefers a warmer climate without drastic fluctuations. Common challenges include potential attacks by aphids and spider mites, as well as susceptibility to overwatering-related issues like root rot. During spring and summer, xysmalobium experience growth spurts and may benefit from more frequent watering, whereas in autumn and winter they enter a dormant period, necessitating reduced watering. Seasonal temperature adjustments may be required to mimic xysmalobium's natural habitat and promote healthy dormancy during cooler months.
