watering

Foam flower (Tiarella 'Eco Eyed Glossy') should be watered when the soil becomes dry 1-2 inches below the surface. Water thoroughly until water run off is visible and allow the soil to dry out between watering. Avoid overwatering as it can cause root rot and otherissues. During hotter months, it may be necessary to water more frequently, every 5-7 days. In cooler months, it may be necessary to water less often, about every 10 days. Always monitor the soil moisture prior to watering.

sunlight

Foam flower (Tiarella 'Eco Eyed Glossy') prefers bright indirect sunlight most of the day. This means that the plant should be placed near a window that gets sunlight but not direct sunlight for much of the day. However, it is important to not place the plant in direct sun as this can cause the foliage to burn. Consequently, the best spot for the foam flower is a north-facing window where it will get 3-6 hours of indirect light per day.

pruning

Foam flowers (Tiarella 'Eco Eyed Glossy') should be pruned lightly each spring, when growth begins to appear. Prune off any dead or damaged stems and remove any old flowers. If the plant is getting too tall, then prune the stems back by up to 1 third of the original length, but make sure to do so evenly so as to maintain an even shape. Pruning foam flowers will encourage new growth, encourage bushiness, and help the plant stay within the right height.
