Signs of Cold Stress in European beech
Symptoms
European beech exhibits remarkable cold hardiness, yet winter temperatures should remain above 32℉. Should the temperature fall below this point, while no immediate changes might be apparent in winter, branches could become fragile and desiccated by spring, with no new growth appearing.
Solutions
During spring, remove any branches that have died and failed to produce new foliage.
Signs of Heat Stress in European beech
Symptoms
European beech does not tolerate elevated temperatures well. When temperatures surpass 70℉, it can lead to considerable leaf shedding, and in extreme instances, the entire plant may wilt and perish.
Solutions
Remove any parts that are scorched and dried out. 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.
