Ground cone is a unique plant genus demanding light shade and well-drained, humus-rich soil. It thrives in cool, moist, but not waterlogged conditions, accommodations found in higher altitudes or northern climates. Common challenges include susceptibility to fungal diseases due to excessive moisture, and pests like slugs. Seasonally, ground cone needs protection from intense sun and heat in summer, and from extreme cold and wet conditions in winter. Striking a balance in its care ensures a healthy, thriving ground cone.
