Launaea thrives in environments that mimic its native semi-arid conditions, requiring minimal supplemental water. This species is drought-tolerant and prefers a dry climate over high humidity. Watering should be done sparingly, approximately once every 2-3 weeks to avoid over-saturation of the soil. As launaea is typically grown outdoors due to its resilience and adaptability to less fertile soils, it's important to consider how natural rainfall contributes to its watering schedule, especially during the active growing season.
