Signs of Cold Temperatures in Wintersweet
Symptoms
Wintersweet tolerates cold well and flourishes optimally when temperatures exceed 50℉. In winter, maintain temperatures above 32℉. If the temperature drops below 23℉, while no immediate winter changes may be apparent, branches can become brittle and dry by spring, preventing new growth.
Solutions
In spring, remove any dead branches that have not produced new foliage.
Signs of High Temperatures in Wintersweet
Symptoms
During summer, Wintersweet should be kept below 68℉. When temperatures surpass 77℉, the plant's leaves might lighten in hue, their tips may dry and shrivel, and the plant becomes more prone to sun damage.
Solutions
Cut off any sun-damaged and desiccated sections. Relocate the plant to a spot offering protection from the midday and afternoon sun, or employ a shade cloth for cover. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
