watering
Water hairy alum root (Heuchera villosa 'Autumn Bride') weekly or every other week, but check the soil to determine when the plant needs water. The plant prefers moist, well-draining soil, so soak the soil until water runs freely from the bottom of the pot, and let it dry out between waterings. Watering too little or too often can cause root rot, so be sure to water only when necessary.
sunlight
Hairy alum root (Heuchera villosa 'Autumn Bride') should be grown in locations with partial sun, meaning 4-6 hours of direct sun per day. A south-facing location is ideal for this plant species. Because of its love for sun, it is best planted in midspring after the soil has warmed and the threat of frost has passed. It requires plenty of water, especially during hot, dry periods. When the temperatures start to cool in the fall, the plant should receive fewer hours of sunlight since it is about to enter its dormant period.
pruning
Hairy alum root (Heuchera villosa 'Autumn Bride') should be pruned in the fall when temperatures start to drop. Pruning should be done selectively and judiciously, taking care not to remove more than a third of the foliage to keep the plant healthy and promote strong new growth the following spring. Pruning too heavily can lead to stress and reduced growth. The overall goal of pruning is to thin out the center of the plant without reducing its size too drastically to improve air circulation, allow the plant to put more energy in growing, and keep a pleasing shape.
