''L. cunninghamii'' is a fairly robust species, requiring around of rain spread throughout the year. It grows best in the deep red mountain soils of Victoria, or in highly organic soils. It can grow in full shade, albeit slowly, through to full sun, given enough water. It is easily grown from fresh seed, germinating in a few weeks. Cuttings can be struck, although they tend to perform less well than seed grown plants. Cultivated specimens survive temperatures of down to ; though it is known that trees growing in the mountains can withstand lower temperatures at least to , and no source provenance selection has been made for cultivation from there. Trees cultivated in western Scotland are stout and hardy.〔Letter from Crarae Garden. 1993. A list Nothofagus species growing at Crarae Garden in Scotland.〕
Both ''L. cunninghamii'' and the closely related ''L. moorei'' are excellent hosts for epiphytes.
