Indications of Cold Temperatures in Honey locust

Symptoms

Honey locust tolerates cold well and flourishes optimally when temperatures exceed 68℉. Throughout winter, it needs to be maintained above 59℉. Should the temperature drop below 32℉, while no immediate changes might be apparent in winter, branches could become fragile and parched by spring, with no new growth appearing.

Solutions

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

Indications of Warm Temperatures in Honey locust

Symptoms

During the summer, Honey locust should be kept below 86℉. When temperatures surpass 95℉, the plant's leaves might lighten in hue, their tips could become dry and shriveled, and the plant becomes more prone to sun damage.

Solutions

Remove the sun-damaged and desiccated sections. Relocate the plant to a spot offering protection from the midday and afternoon sun, or employ a shade cloth for cover. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
