It will benefit from well prepared soil with compost and a thick layer of mulch. Although natural to limestone, Acmadenia heterophylla will also tolerate acidic soils. These are excellent plants for coastal gardens. The plants can be propagated by seed or cuttings, but both require some skill. Fresh seed must be sown in autumn.
Cuttings have the advantage of producing a larger flowering plant faster than seedlings.
Prepare cuttings by making a clean cut below the node and remove the third of the foliage. Dip the base of the cuttings in a rooting hormone such as Seradix 3. Rooting occurs in 9 to 11 weeks. Plants will be ready for planting in 7 to 8 months. Feed regularly with a well balance nutrient.
