watering
Coral bells need to be watered regularly, about 1 to 2 times per week, depending on the weather. During the hottest months of summer, or if the soil or air is particularly dry or windy, it may need to be watered more often. An easy way to tell if your coral bells need to be watered is to stick your finger into the soil. If the soil is dry about an inch deep, it’s time to add water. Avoid letting the plant sit in water, as this may lead to fungal diseases. When you water, do so slowly, until the soil is thoroughly moist.
sunlight
Coral Bells (Heuchera 'TNHEU041' DOLCE CREME BRULEE) prefer bright, indirect sunlight for optimal growth and flowering. To ensure the best performance, provide 4 to 6 hours of direct but filtered sunlight each day. This could mean placing the plant in a south- or east-facing window, or in a slightly shaded spot outdoors such as under the canopy of tall trees. On hot days, it is important to provide some additional shade by either draping light shade cloth over the plant or moving it to a spot with more tree canopy. Avoid positioning the plant in direct, hot sunlight, as it may cause the foliage to crisp and brown.
pruning
The best time for pruning coral bells (Heuchera 'TNHEU041' DOLCE CREME BRULEE) is in late winter or early spring, before new growth appears. Pruning coral bells in late winter or early spring can help the plant stay healthier and fuller in the long run. How much to prune depends on what kind of look you are going for. If you'd like to rejuvenate the plant and promote fuller growth, you will want to trim back the foliage by up to 1/3. If you would like to keep the coral bell’s height, but give it a tidier appearance, trim back any overgrown stems to the desired length. It is also important to remove any dead or diseased stems. Avoid pruning too much of the foliage, as this can cause the plant to become lanky and weak.
