coral bells

Coral bells should be watered deeply about twice a week during the growing season. When watering, be sure to saturate the soil around the plant's roots to a depth of at least 6 inches. In periods of extreme heat, it may be necessary to water more often - perhaps daily depending on the conditions. During cooler months, reduce watering to once a week. In temperatures below 40 degrees Fahrenheit (4.4 degrees Celsius), however, no additional water is necessary. Allow the soil to dry out slightly between watering sessions.

Coral bells thrive in full sun for 4-5 hours per day. The best time to give Heuchera 'PWHEU0103' Dolce Creme de Menthe full sun is from mid-morning until mid-afternoon. This will provide the most efficient, yet not excessive, amount of sunlight for your plant. Direct midday sun should be avoided as it can cause scorching and burning on the foliage. When given the proper amount of sunlight, Coral bells will produce vibrant, healthy foliage.

Coral bells can be pruned anytime from late winter to early spring, although depending on the climate, the exact dates may be different. Pruning should be done lightly to maintain the desired size and shape, while removing any dead or damaged foliage. Remove no more than 1-third of the older leaves and stems. When pruning, always use sharp, clean pruners to ensure a clean cut and to reduce the risk of disease.
