Khaya, often referred to as African mahogany, is a tropical genus that possesses a moderate overall care profile. Basic care needs require a balance of bright, indirect light, regular watering without over-saturation, warm temperatures, and rich, well-draining soils. Common challenges include pests like beetles and diseases like wilt fungus and canker, alongside sensitivity to cold temperatures. Seasonal considerations involve limited watering during colder months, and protection from harsh direct sunlight in summer. The plant, in general, requires watchful maintenance for optimal growth.
