When planting orophea, choose a well-drained soil enriched with organic matter. Partial shade is ideal, providing a balance of light without the extremes of direct sun. Maintain consistent moisture without waterlogging the roots. First, dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball. Gently place orophea in the hole, ensuring it's level with the surrounding soil. Backfill, press down to eliminate air pockets, and water thoroughly. Mulch can help retain soil moisture. Note individual species' needs, as they can vary significantly within the genus.
