The black mangroves genus, often found in mangrove environments, requires basic care for thriving growth, including full sun to partial shade, frequent watering, and tolerant to a wide range of temperatures. The plants prefer slightly acidic to neutral soil, though they are highly adaptable. Common challenges include diseases like root rot and pests such as aphids. Seasonal considerations involve minimizing exposure to frost in winters and monitoring water levels during dry summers. Being a salt tolerant genus, they require less care in coastal regions.
