Staehelina thrives in well-draining soil, preferring full sun exposure and moderate water, with good tolerance for drought once established. To plant, select a sunny site with gritty, loose soil. Amend with organic material if needed to improve drainage. Space plants at recommended intervals to allow for growth. Plant at the same depth as in the pot and water in well. Mulch lightly to retain moisture. Regularly check the soil moisture, especially in the first growing season, and water accordingly. Be mindful of individual species needs within the genus, as variations exist.
