The lagotis genus prefers well-drained soil with moderate moisture, and thrives in areas with full sun to partial shade. To plant lagotis, begin by loosening the soil and incorporating organic matter to improve drainage and fertility. Space plants according to their expected size at maturity, and water thoroughly after planting. Mulching can help retain moisture and suppress weeds. While lagotis species generally share these requirements, specific care varies; it's essential to research the particular needs of the species you are planting.
