The prairie Brazoria genus comprises hardy, perennial flowering plants with modest care profile. Basic requirements include a full to partial sun exposure, well-drained soil, and dry to medium moisture levels. The plants are adapted to hot, dry climates, making them fairly drought-tolerant. Common challenges include a susceptibility to root rot when over-watered or in poorly drained soil. Other pests and diseases may include aphids, whiteflies, and powdery mildew. Seasonal considerations involve cutting back in late winter for more robust spring growth. As they are native to warmer climates, protection from cold is recommended in non-native environments.
