Sweet cicelies is a plant genus that thrives best in moderate sun to partial shade, requiring well-drained, slightly acidic to neutral soil. It fares best in cool to moderate temperatures. Common challenges include aphids and fungal diseases, whilst the plant is also sensitive to harsh sunlight and drought. Seasonally, it blooms in the spring, but needs little to no care in the winter. For optimal growth, seasonal mulching, and protection during intense heat are advised.
