Indications of Low Temperature in Coral bean

Symptoms

Coral bean tolerates cold well and flourishes optimally when temperatures exceed 65℉. In winter, it needs to be maintained above 55℉. Should the temperature drop below 40℉, even if no immediate changes are apparent in winter, branches might become fragile and parched by spring, preventing new growth.

Solutions

During spring, remove any lifeless branches that haven't produced fresh foliage.

Indications of High Temperature in Coral bean

Symptoms

In summer, Coral bean should be kept below 80℉. When temperatures surpass 90℉, the plant's leaves might lighten in hue, their tips could dry and shrivel, and the plant becomes more prone to sun damage.

Solutions

Cut off the sun-damaged and desiccated sections. Relocate the plant to a spot offering protection from the midday and afternoon sun, or use a shade fabric to provide cover. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
