Signs of Cold Temperatures in Wild Indigo

Symptoms

Wild Indigo tolerates cold well and flourishes optimally when temperatures exceed 60℉. In winter, maintain temperatures above 50℉. If the temperature drops below 40℉, while no immediate changes might be apparent in winter, reduced or absent sprouting could occur in spring.

Solutions

In springtime, remove any sections that have not sprouted.

Signs of High Temperatures in Wild Indigo

Symptoms

During summer, Wild Indigo should be kept below 75℉. When temperatures surpass 85℉, the plant's leaves might lighten in hue, tend to curl, become prone to sunburn, and in severe instances, the entire plant could wilt and dry out.

Solutions

Remove any sun-damaged and desiccated portions. Relocate the plant to a spot offering protection from the midday and afternoon sun, or use a shade cloth for cover. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
