Originating from regions with moderate climates, trigonotis has adapted to consistent moisture levels, favoring a stable watering routine. It thrives when its soil is kept evenly moist but not waterlogged, showcasing a preference for regular hydration without extremes. Watering every week suits trigonotis's needs, maintaining the balance it naturally prefers. As an outdoor plant often found in garden beds or borders, trigonotis benefits significantly from mulching which helps retain soil moisture and reduces the need for frequent watering.
