Dog figwort has strong resistance to disease and generally does not tend to develop illnesses. Nonetheless, it can be affected by pests and diseases present in its surroundings. These infections are typically not serious. In terms of care, the plant requires a moderate level of maintenance. Regular pruning is needed to preserve a good appearance and support healthy growth. Fertilizing can also help encourage flowering. Dog figwort is suitable for anyone with an outdoor area, such as a garden or patio, and does not demand extensive care experience. It may, however, require more attention when grown indoors.

Fertilizer
One fertilizer application in spring is generally enough for Dog figwort, though repeated feedings can maximize growth. Feed at intervals of about one to one and a half months. Fertilizing improves the leaves’ appearance and function, helping maintain even color and a healthy texture. It also promotes root development and nutrient uptake for the plant’s long-term health.
