Signs of Cold Stress in Butterfly bush
Symptoms
Butterfly bush tolerates cold well and flourishes best when temperatures exceed 60℉. In winter, maintain temperatures above 50℉. If temperatures drop below 40℉, 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 haven't produced new foliage.
Signs of Heat Stress in Butterfly bush
Symptoms
During summer, Butterfly bush should be kept below 75℉. When temperatures surpass 85℉, the plant's leaves may lighten, tips might dry and wither, and it becomes more prone to sun damage.
Solutions
Remove any sun-damaged and dried sections. Relocate the plant to a spot offering protection from midday and afternoon sun, or use a shade cloth. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
