Signs of Cold Stress in False heather

Symptoms

False heather thrives in warmth and cannot withstand cold. It flourishes best when temperatures exceed 65℉. In winter, maintain temperatures above 60℉. If temperatures drop below 50℉, leaves may lose their vibrant color. Following frost damage, foliage progressively browns or blackens, and signs like wilting and drooping might appear.

Solutions

Remove any parts damaged by frost. Promptly relocate the plant indoors to a warm setting for protection from cold. Position the plant near a south-facing window to ensure sufficient light. Furthermore, avoid placing it near heating units or AC vents to prevent excessive air dryness.
