Pruning running tapestry tiarella — FAQ
When should I prune running tapestry tiarella?
Deadhead after late-spring flowering; light shear or tidy in early spring. Snip spent flower stems to the base. In early spring, shear the mat to a few centimetres above the ground to refresh foliage. Trim stolons at the planting boundary to control spread.
How often does running tapestry tiarella need pruning?
Deadhead after flowering; light annual tidy in spring; edge-control as needed. Running Tapestry Tiarella (T. cordifolia) spreads by stolons and needs minimal pruning. Cut back spent flower spikes at the base after blooming to keep things tidy. In early spring, shear over the mat lightly to remove any winter-damaged foliage and encourage fresh growth. Control spread by pulling or cutting back stolons at the edges.
