Aegiceras typically thrives in well-lit environments with indirect sunlight and requires consistent moisture, preferring a humid climate. It's best planted in loamy, well-drained soil, and can tolerate mild saline conditions. Gardeners must be vigilant against root rot, aphids, and fungal diseases, the common challenges for aegiceras. Seasonally, aegiceras may need protection from extreme temperatures, with increased humidity in summer and reduced watering in winter to align with its growth cycle.
