Taiwania should be watered once to twice a week, depending on the growing conditions. During the warmer months, water more often, making sure the soil is evenly moist. During the cooler months, water less frequently. Be sure not to let the soil dry out completely, as this can cause the plant to become stressed and weak. When watering, use lukewarm water as cold water could shock the plant and its root system.

Taiwania species thrive in full or partial sunlight. When grown indoors, they will need to be located near a south or west-facing window to receive adequate exposure to sunlight. In outdoor settings, the trees should be planted in a location that receives at least 4 hours of direct sunlight during the day. In hotter climates, they may need to be provided with some afternoon shade during the summer months to protect them from too much direct sun.

Taiwania (Taiwania cryptomerioides) is a medium-sized coniferous tree, native to parts of China, Japan, and Taiwan. It grows best in acidic soil, in climates that are wet but not overly cold or hot. To ensure that the tree develops into a strong, healthy specimen, it should be pruned regularly. Taiwania should be pruned twice a year, in early spring and again in midsummer. In early spring, pruning should be light, only removing dead, unhealthy branches and ones that are too close together. In midsummer, more substantial pruning should take place, as this is when the tree is growing most vigorously. Heavy pruning should be focused on thinning out the tree’s structure, removing competing branches, and removing any branches that are rubbing against each other. When pruning Taiwania, it is important to use clean, sharp pruning shears, and to make sure to clean the shears between cuts to prevent the spread of disease. It is also important to remember to prune in a careful, strategic way, being sure not to damage the tree’s roots or crown. By pruning twice a year, you can ensure that your Taiwania tree grows strong and healthy.
