Water Bergenia emeiensis regularly, especially during dry periods, to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out slightly between waterings.

Reduce watering in winter when growth slows down to prevent root rot.

Prune Bergenia emeiensis after flowering to remove spent flower stalks and tidy up the plant. Cut back any dead, damaged, or leggy stems to maintain a compact and attractive shape.

Hard pruning can be done every few years to rejuvenate older plants.

Propagate Bergenia emeiensis by division in early spring or autumn. Carefully dig up the plant and separate sections of the rhizome, ensuring each piece has at least one bud and some roots.

Replant divisions immediately into well-prepared soil.

Repotting is rarely necessary for Bergenia emeiensis as it thrives when slightly crowded.

If a plant becomes extremely pot-bound or shows signs of reduced vigor, repot in spring into a slightly larger container with fresh, well-draining potting mix. Ensure the rhizome is at soil level.
