Growing Tips for Heuchera americana
Plant it in partial shade with well-drained, humus-rich soil. While it can tolerate full sun, too much direct sunlight can scorch its leaves. Regular watering is essential, especially during dry periods, but ensure the soil is not waterlogged to avoid root rot. Mulching helps retain soil moisture and keeps the roots cool. Deadheading spent flowers can promote further blooming and maintain plant tidiness.
