Signs of Cold Temperatures in Summersweet
Symptoms
Summersweet tolerates cold well and flourishes optimally when temperatures exceed 59℉. In winter, it needs to stay above 41℉. If temperatures drop below 32℉, while winter might show no immediate effects, branches can become brittle and dry by spring, preventing new growth.
Solutions
In spring, remove any dead branches that haven't produced new foliage.
Signs of High Temperatures in Summersweet
Symptoms
During summer, Summersweet should be maintained below 77℉. When temperatures surpass 86℉, the plant's leaves might lighten, tips could dry and shrivel, and it becomes more prone to sun damage.
