Originating from arid regions, euclea has adapted to survive with minimal moisture, exhibiting a high drought tolerance. Its water habits are best described as conservative, thriving on less frequent watering sessions. For optimal health, euclea should be watered once every 2-3 weeks, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings. As an outdoor plant often found in its native dry climate zones, euclea's growth cycles are closely tied to seasonal rainfall patterns, making it well-suited for xeriscaping.
