This plant is very adaptable and prefers a moderate amount of water. In the warm summer, it may require watering every 1-2 weeks. In the winter, watering can be reduced to once a month. The soil should be well-draining and mostly sandy, and it should be allowed to dry out in between waterings.
For gardeners in colder regions, Pterodiscus can be grown in a pot. Plant the caudex in a good quality potting soil, and make sure the container has adequate drainage. Pterodiscus is hardy to USDA Zones 9-11, though the cold can damage the foliage. To protect the plant from the cold, make sure to bring the container indoors during freezing temperatures.
Overall, Pterodiscus is a great choice for gardeners who want to add texture, color, and a tropical feel to any landscape. Its easy-care requirements and its long bloom period make it suitable for both novice and experienced gardeners alike.
