How to fertilize Coral Bells

Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Coral Bells after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Coral Bell Repotting In October I bought coral bells because they were on sale for a dollar. I left them outside through the worst winter in six years so when spring came, i assumed they were dead but couldn’t tell so I threw them in my greenhouse. Not only were they not dead, they grew like crazy. Now they DESPERATELY need a repot but I kinda want to put them in the ground but I don’t want them dying three days later. Coral bell enthusiasts or anyone with general knowledge, any ideas on what I should do? #CoralBells

ACE Hardware #planthaul !! They had 75% off all of their plants! I spent $50 all together for 12 succulents, a #RoyalHawaiianBlackCoralColocasia, a big pink #cordyline , some pretty #Coleus, and 2 of these cold hardy Georgia Peach #CoralBells that I am going to plant in the ground. The #succulents were 99cents each!!! I am totally in love with the #Colocasia and I feel like I should have gotten another one! Lol. They all look so healthy. If you have an ACE nearby, go quickly and see what they have!!! #happyplants #plantaddict #plantsmakepeoplehappy #succulentlove #planttherapy #greggers #greggang #theamigos #echeveria #jade #newplants

How to get my Obsidian Coral Bells to produce more growth! Hey #GregGang, I repotted my #Obsidian #CoralBells about 2-3 weeks ago. It was successful, she’s not stressed but she’s not producing more growth, like at all. It’s Spring here in Aus, I thought I’d see a bit more growth. She’s right in front of a North facing window so she gets sunlight all day long & I even have a grow light on her as the weather has been a bit up & down with overcast days, but blazing hot afternoons and then rain at night. Any #advice on how to get her to make babies? #HappyPlants #
