This plant thrives in poor to moderately fertile, well-drained soils with full sun exposure, emphasizing the importance of excellent soil drainage. It should be avoided in moist or wet soils, as they can lead to root rot. In dry soils, it typically develops deep taproots, but in moist conditions, its root system remains shallow. In high humidity climates, foliage decline may occur.
