Signs of Cold Temperatures in Bush poppy

Symptoms

Bush poppy tolerates cold well and grows optimally when temperatures are above 60℉. In winter, temperatures should remain above 50℉. If the temperature drops below 40℉, while no immediate changes might be visible in winter, branches can become brittle and dry in spring, with no new growth appearing.

Solutions

In spring, remove any dead branches that have not produced new foliage.

Signs of High Temperatures in Bush poppy

Symptoms

During summer, Bush poppy should be maintained below 75℉. When temperatures surpass 85℉, the plant's leaves may lighten in hue, their tips might dry and shrivel, and the plant becomes more prone to sun damage.

Solutions

Remove any parts that are sunburned and dried. Relocate the plant to a spot offering protection from the midday and afternoon sun, or use a shade cloth for cover. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
