The lippia genus is known for plants that generally prefer sunny conditions, well-draining soil, and moderate watering, with an emphasis on allowing the soil to dry out between irrigations. Its members can be sensitive to cold temperatures and require protection or overwintering indoors in cooler climates. Gardeners often face common challenges like pests, including aphids and spider mites, and potential issues with root rot due to overwatering. Seasonal care adjustments are necessary, particularly in winter, when lippia plants need less water and may demand additional light if grown indoors.
