watering
Water redflower false yucca deeply 2 to 3 times a week in hot and dry climates, or once a week or less in more humid climates. During the cooler months, reduce watering to once a month, allowing the soil to dry lightly between waterings. Ensure that the soil does not become either too dry or overly saturated. If the ground is too waterlogged, the roots will suffocate and rot.
sunlight
Redflower false yucca (Hesperaloe parviflora 'Coral Glow') prefers full sun to partial shade, typically at least 6 hours of direct sunlight each day. It can tolerate some light shade in very hot climates, but may not bloom as well in shade. In areas prone to frost, it is best to protect the plant from strong winds and intense cold temperatures during the winter months.
pruning
Redflower False Yucca should be pruned each year in late winter, ideally before the new growth begins. Pruning for this plant should be fairly light, and should be done by removing only the dead and damaged, major stems and leaves. Usually only 1/3 or so should be pruned, however if necessary up to 2/3 of the plant may be pruned for shaping. Pruning should be limited to removing only dead, damaged or diseased foliage and should not be done to reduce the size of the plant significantly.
