Signs of Cold Stress in Love-lies-bleeding

Symptoms

Love-lies-bleeding tolerates cool conditions and flourishes optimally when temperatures exceed 65℉. In colder months, it needs to stay above 60℉. If the temperature drops below 50℉, while no immediate winter damage might be apparent, spring germination could be reduced or entirely absent.

Solutions

In the spring, remove any sections that have not germinated.

Signs of Heat Stress in Love-lies-bleeding

Symptoms

In summer, Love-lies-bleeding should be maintained below 75℉. When temperatures surpass 80℉, the plant's foliage may lighten, curl easily, suffer from sunscald, and in extreme cases, the whole plant might droop and desiccate.

Solutions

Remove any sun-damaged and dried portions. Relocate the plant to an area offering protection from intense midday and afternoon sun, or deploy a shade cloth. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
