For planting tetratheca, select well-draining soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. These plants thrive in full sun to partial shade, needing ample light for robust growth. Water requirements are moderate; maintain moist soil, especially during establishment, but avoid waterlogging. To plant, dig a hole twice the size of the root ball, position tetratheca at the same depth it was in the container, backfill, and tamp down. Mulch lightly to conserve moisture and regulate temperature. Adapt planting methods to suit different tetratheca species.
