Although Anisodontea julii comes from a summer rainfall region, it grows equally well in winter rainfall regions, flowering in its first season. Plant in full sun in any soil, but for better results add compost and irrigate occasionally. Prune back about a third in autumn to keep them neat and pinch out the growing tips to encourage bushiness. Plants spread at the roots by producing suckers in a most satisfactory way.

A. julii can be propagated from seed or cuttings in spring. Plants grown from seed may not, however, resemble the parent exactly, as Anisodontea hybridizes freely. Cuttings root easily and are useful if you want to maintain a particularly good form of plant.
