rodgersia

Rodgersia podophylla should be watered once or twice a week, depending on the weather conditions. Be sure to check the soil moisture before watering. If the soil is still damp from the last watering, skip it and wait until the soil begins to dry out before applying more water. During hot, dry weather, water more frequently. Make sure the soil is moist but not waterlogged. Water deeply to encourage the roots to grow deep into the soil, and apply enough water so that some begins to seep out of the pot's drainage holes.

Rodgersia (Rodgersia podophylla) needs plenty of direct sunlight to thrive. In spring and summer, it should receive 6 to 8 hours of sunlight a day, while in fall and winter, it may need as little as 4 to 6 hours. It's important not to over-expose the plant to sunlight during its hottest months, as too much sun may lead to leaf scorch. During the summer, try to provide some shade for the Rodgersia's delicate foliage.

The Rodgersia (Rodgersia podophylla) is a perennial flower that does best in part shade to full shade and moist to wet soils. It is relatively fast growing and can be rather unruly, so it is best to prune back to keep it looking tidy. Pruning can take place each year, typically in late winter or early spring while the plant is still dormant. Cut back the foliage to the desired height, leaving some of the old growth for winter protection. Remove any dead or damaged leaves and stems, as well as any crossing branches that may detract from the appearance of the plant. For more significantly overgrown plants, it’s best to cut the stems back to about 6-8 inches from the ground in order to stimulate new growth and make the plant look more aesthetically pleasing. Be careful not to prune too much or too late in the season as this can damage the plant’s health.
