The fatoua genus, commonly called mulberry weed, prefers well-drained, fertile soil and either partial shade or sun. Start with a clean planting area free of weeds and debris. Plant the fatoua at the same depth it was in its nursery pot, designating space between plants for growth. Water immediately after planting, ensuring the soil doesn't become waterlogged. Regular watering and mulching can help conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Some fatoua species may have unique requirements, making it important to research the specific needs of each variety you wish to grow.
