Pruning lime rickey heuchera — FAQ
When should I prune lime rickey heuchera?
Early spring as new growth begins; replant every 3–4 years. Pull away dead leaves by hand or cut with scissors at the base. Remove old flower stalks cleanly. If the crown has heaved above soil level, lift the plant, trim woody stem to healthy tissue, and replant at correct depth.
How often does lime rickey heuchera need pruning?
Light tidy annually in spring; full crown division every 3–4 years. Heucheras benefit from light annual tidying rather than hard pruning. In early spring, remove any dead or tatty outer leaves and trim old flower stems from the previous year. Every 3–4 years, lift and replant heucheras to combat the woody crown heaving out of the soil — this refreshes the plant better than pruning alone.
