Pleurospermum, a hardy perennial, thrives in well-drained, loamy soils with full sun to partial shade exposure. It prefers cool climates, tolerating frost, but needs protection from excessively high temperatures. Regular watering, without waterlogging, is crucial. Common challenges include aphid infestation and fungal diseases. Increased vigilance is needed during spring and summer when pests and disease prevalence rises. Winter demands safeguards against frost and reduced watering to align with diminished growth.
