watering
Coral bells should be watered when the soil is dry to the touch and be careful not to over- or underwater them. An average amount of water is about once a week, but during hotter weather, these plants may need more water. Always check the soil moisture levels before watering to ensure that you don't offer too much or too little. They thrive in moist, well-drained soil, but can tolerate some drought so be sure not to overwater.
sunlight
Coral bells (Heuchera 'Cappuccino') thrive in full sun or partial shade with 4 to 6 hours of direct sunshine and some afternoon shade in warmer climates. In cooler climates, they do best in full sun in the morning and partial shade in the afternoon. In the summer months, it's important to ensure the plants receive enough shade to prevent leaf scorching and wilting.
pruning
Coral bells (Heuchera 'Cappuccino') are generally hardy plants that don't need much pruning, but they may benefit from a little grooming or shaping once a year. Pruning should take place in late winter or early spring, before new growth appears. Begin by trimming off dead or damaged stems and leaves. Then, prune off stems that have become too tall, and thin out the center of the plant to improve air circulation. If needed, prune off any stems that are leggy or crossing over each other to create a fuller, more uniform shape. Finally, remove any flower stalks to encourage the plant to produce more foliage instead of flowers.
