For the 'pachygone' genus, select well-draining soil enriched with organic matter, favoring light conditions based on each species' preference, ranging from full sun to partial shade. Water needs may vary, but generally, maintain moderate moisture without waterlogging. When planting 'pachygone', initially loosen the soil and incorporate compost for nutrients. Position plants with adequate space for growth, and water thoroughly post-planting. Mulch to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature. Note the diversity within 'pachygone'—research species-specific needs for optimal growth.
