Moraea miniata is not cultivated widely but can be propagated by seeds or cormels.

At Hantam NBG, the seeds were sprinkled in a sunny, well-drained flower bed in autumn and left to germinate with the rain and grow naturally.They are given little attention and the plants have rewarded the garden with lots of flowers. Seeds can be sown in deep seed trays filled with well-drained sowing medium, sown 3-4 mm deep and kept moist. Seeds should germinate in 4-6 weeks, and the seedlings should be left undisturbed for two growing seasons before lifting and transplanting.

Moraea miniata primarily reproduces through cormels (tiny corms) rather than seeds. These cormels form around the base of the plant and in the angle of each leaf. Separate these cormels from the mother plant and replant in autumn, just before active growth begins.

Moraea miniata grows from corms. These corms are bulb-like structures located below the ground. Corms are best lifted and replanted while they are dormant. When planting, space the corms, 10-15 cm apart. Place the corms with the pointed end facing up. Apply a layer of organic mulch around the planted corms to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Water the newly planted corms moderately to establish root systems and avoid overwatering. Ensure the soil is well-drained to prevent waterlogged conditions. Regularly remove weeds around the planted area to prevent competition. Apply a balanced, low-nitrogen fertilizer during the growing season. Remove faded flowers to encourage continuous blooming. Always keep in mind that Moraea miniata corms can remain dormant in the soil for several years.

Moraea miniata can be planted either in summer or winter growing climates, for summer plant them in spring and in winter plant them in autumn. It is not hardy in cold climates.
