Propagation of Aloestrela suzannae is almost exclusively by seeds, planted in spring or early summer, in trays of coarse river sand. When growing this species, it is essential to mimic its natural habitat. This includes providing well-drained, nutrient-rich soil and ensuring adequate moisture without waterlogging. Shade and good ventilation are crucial, and while it prefers a sunny situation, direct sunlight can hinder the growth of young plants. In its habitat young plants often grow in the shade of larger shrubs and trees, but with age they grow up into the sunlight. Regular monitoring and care will help ensure a healthy plant, contributing to both private gardens and conservation efforts.

Aloestrela suzannae is an adaptable, low-maintenance plant. It is best suited to dry tropical to subtropical or temperate climates with mild, frost-free winters and hot summers, and not too much rain, but will tolerate mild frost. Grow in well-drained, sandy or sandy loam soil, in sun, semi-shade or dappled shade.

In cold or wet climates, it can be grown in large containers and placed where conditions can be controlled. Always use a good quality, sandy loam soil with plenty of drainage chips at the bottom of the container. It tolerates weekly watering in the summer but should be watered once a month, or not at all in the colder winter months. It will grow much better if moved outdoors in spring and summer.

Aloestrela suzannae can tolerate long periods of drought, but they will thrive and flower more often if watered moderately but regularly during spring and summer. Too much watering, poor drainage or too much shade can lead to rotting and attacks by pests and diseases. They grow slowly but can be somewhat faster in cultivation, increasing their height by 5-10 cm per year under favourable conditions.
