For planting vallea, select an area with well-draining soil to prevent root rot and ensure optimal growth. These plants thrive in bright, indirect light but can tolerate some shade. Regular watering is essential, especially during dry periods, although established plants can be somewhat drought-tolerant. Begin by digging a hole twice the width of the root ball and as deep. Place the plant in the hole and backfill with soil, pressing down firmly. Water thoroughly after planting. Mulch can help retain soil moisture and regulate temperature. While these guidelines suit most vallea species, always research individual species' requirements.
