Signs of Cold Stress in Rough tree fern
Symptoms
Rough tree fern exhibits moderate resilience to cold and flourishes optimally when temperatures exceed 60℉. Throughout the winter, it should be maintained above 55℉. Should the temperature drop below 40℉, its fronds might begin to sag. In minor instances, recovery is possible, but severe cases lead to wilting and eventual shedding of fronds.
Solutions
Remove any parts damaged by frost. Before subsequent exposure to low temperatures, cover the plant with materials like non-woven fabric or burlap, and erect a windbreak to shield it from cold gusts.
Signs of Heat Stress in Rough tree fern
Symptoms
In the summer, Rough tree fern should be kept below 75℉. When temperatures surpass 85℉, the fronds' color fades, their tips may become dry and shriveled, they might curl, and the plant becomes more prone to sun damage.
Solutions
Prune off any sun-scorched and desiccated sections. Relocate the plant to an area offering protection from the midday and afternoon sun, or deploy a shade cloth for cover. Irrigate the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
