Signs of Cold Stress in Cape jasmine

Symptoms

Cape jasmine tolerates cool conditions moderately well and flourishes optimally when temperatures exceed 65℉. Throughout the winter, it needs to be maintained above 60℉. Should the temperature drop below 50℉, its foliage might begin to sag. In minor instances, recovery is possible, but in severe cases, leaves will shrivel and ultimately detach.

Solutions

Remove any sections damaged by frost. Before subsequent exposure to low temperatures, cover the plant with materials like non-woven fabric or textiles, and erect a windbreak to shield it from cold gusts.
