Signs of Cold Temperatures in Arizona cypress
Symptoms
Arizona cypress tolerates cold well and flourishes best when temperatures are above 50℉. In winter, it needs to stay above 41℉. If temperatures drop below 32℉, while no immediate winter changes might be seen, branches can become fragile 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 Arizona cypress
Symptoms
During summer, Arizona cypress should be maintained below 77℉. When temperatures go above 86℉, the plant's leaves might lighten, tips could dry and shrivel, and it becomes more prone to sun damage.
Solutions
Cut off the sun-damaged and dried sections. Relocate the plant to a spot offering protection from midday and afternoon sun, or use a shade cloth for cover. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
