Watering Frequency: Every 2 weeks
Malpighia thrives in environments that mimic its native tropical climate, where regular rainfall contributes to its lush growth. This species exhibits a preference for consistent moisture but has adapted to tolerate brief dry spells. Its watering schedule should reflect moderate frequency, with once every two weeks being sufficient to maintain hydration without over-saturating the soil. Given malpighia's tropical origins, it's more commonly grown outdoors where it can benefit from natural precipitation; however, if cultivated indoors, ensure high humidity to emulate its preferred conditions. As an evergreen plant, malpighia relies on adequate water to maintain its year-round foliage vitality.
