Signs of Cold Stress in Black chokeberry
Symptoms
Black chokeberry tolerates cold well and flourishes when temperatures exceed 60℉. In winter, it needs to stay above 50℉. If temperatures drop below 32℉, while winter might show no immediate effects, branches can become brittle and dry in spring, with no new growth appearing.
Solutions
In spring, remove any dead branches that haven't produced new foliage.
Signs of Heat Stress in Black chokeberry
Symptoms
In summer, Black chokeberry should be maintained below 75℉. When temperatures go above 85℉, the plant's leaves might lighten in color, tips could dry and shrivel, and it becomes more prone to sunburn.
Solutions
Remove any sun-damaged and desiccated sections. Relocate the plant to a spot offering protection from midday and afternoon sun, or use a shade fabric. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
