coral bells

Coral bells (Heuchera 'Blondie') prefer consistently moist soil, so water them regularly throughout the growing season. Watering should be done every 3-4 days, or as often as needed to keep the soil slightly damp. During particularly hot or dry weather, you may need to water more often. When watering, avoid splashing water on the leaves and be sure to thoroughly soak the soil. In cooler months, you can reduce the frequency of watering.

Coral bells (Heuchera 'Blondie') prefer partial shade in cooler climates and full sun in warmer climates. They should receive about 4 to 6 hours of direct sunlight each day, but the intensity of the sun can be reduced with a light shade. For optimal growth and blooming, place it in an area that receives morning sun and afternoon shade, or afternoon sun and morning shade, to help protect it from the heat of the day. In the spring, these plants can handle more sunlight but during the hotter days of summer, it’s best to provide them with some light shade.

Coral bells (Heuchera 'Blondie') should be pruned twice a year. In the spring, after the last frost, you should prune away any dead or damaged foliage. In the fall, just before the first frost, you should trim back any leggy or overly large growth, as well as remove any dead or damaged foliage. Generally, you should remove up to 1-third of the total growth of your Heuchera 'Blondie' each time. Be sure to use clean, sharp garden scissors and work slowly, taking extra care to avoid damaging the healthy leaves.
