Hiptage generally thrives well in loamy, well-drained soil with medium to high fertility. They prefer bright, indirect sunlight and regular watering, but avoid water logging. The basic steps include preparing the planting area with nutritious soil, placing the plant with space to grow, watering well after planting, and occasional mulching to keep the soil nutrient-rich. Understanding the specific needs of individual species within the hiptage genus is key for successful growth. Regular pruning to maintain the shape and health of the plant is also advisable.
