Signs of Cold Temperatures in Common dogwood
Symptoms
Common dogwood tolerates cold well and flourishes when temperatures are above 59℉. In winter, it needs to stay above 41℉. If temperatures drop below 23℉, while no immediate winter changes may be apparent, branches can become brittle and dry in spring, with no new growth appearing.
Solutions
In spring, remove any dead branches that haven't produced new foliage.
Signs of High Temperatures in Common dogwood
Symptoms
In summer, Common dogwood should be maintained below 77℉. When temperatures exceed 95℉, the plant's leaves might lighten, tips could 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.
