For planting operculina, select a well-drained soil mix and a spot with full sun to partial shade. These plants prefer consistent moisture, yet they can tolerate short periods of drought once established. Begin by tilling the soil and incorporating organic matter if needed. Plant the operculina at the same depth as the nursery container, spacing them according to the species' spread. Water the newly planted operculina thoroughly and maintain moisture during the initial growth phase. For greater success, consider the specific needs of your operculina species, as these can vary.
