Symptoms
Black sagebrush tolerates cold well and flourishes when temperatures exceed 60℉. In winter, maintain temperatures above 50℉. If temperatures drop below 32℉, while winter changes might be subtle, branches can become brittle and dry by spring, with no new growth appearing.
Solutions
In spring, remove any dead branches that have not produced new foliage.
Signs of Heat Stress in Black sagebrush
Symptoms
In summer, Black sagebrush should be kept below 75℉. When temperatures surpass 85℉, the plant's leaves may lighten in color, tips might dry and shrivel, and it becomes more prone to sunburn.
Solutions
Remove any parts that are sunburned and dried. Relocate the plant to a spot offering protection from the midday and afternoon sun, or use a shade cloth. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
