Light Requirements: Prefers full sun to partial shade. Indigofera incarnata thrives best in full sunlight, which promotes the healthiest growth and most abundant flowering. It can tolerate partial shade, especially in hotter climates, but for the best results, provide it with plenty of direct sunlight.

Soil Requirements: Prefers well-draining, moderately fertile soil. This plant grows well in a variety of soil types, including sandy, loamy, and clay soils, as long as they are well-draining. The soil should be slightly acidic to neutral, with a pH range of 6.0-7.5. Incorporating organic matter, such as compost, into the soil can improve its fertility and structure, supporting robust growth.

Watering: Requires regular watering, especially during dry periods. While Indigofera incarnata is somewhat drought-tolerant once established, it prefers consistently moist soil during the growing season. Water deeply and regularly, but avoid waterlogged conditions. Mulching around the base of the plant helps retain soil moisture and keeps the roots cool.
