Signs of Heat Stress in Paper birch
Symptoms
Paper birch does not fare well in high temperatures. When the temperature surpasses 70℉, it might experience considerable leaf shedding, and in extreme instances, the entire plant could wilt and perish.
Solutions
Remove any sun-damaged and dried-out sections. Relocate the plant to an area offering protection from the midday and afternoon sun, or utilize a shade cloth to provide cover. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
