The false mermaid genus requires minimal care, suited to mild climates. Preferring high-light levels, it requires moderate water, thriving in cooler temperatures and well-draining, boggy soil. Common challenges include pests such as aphids and mildew diseases, and sensitivity to dry environmental conditions. Seasonal considerations consist of reduced watering in winters to prevent root rot and extra protection in extremely low temperatures. As a woodland plant, false mermaid prefers a stable environment all year round, consultation with horticultural sources is advisable for specific care practices.
