Signs of Cold Stress in Moonflower

Symptoms

Moonflower thrives in warmth and cannot withstand cold. It flourishes best when temperatures exceed 68℉. In winter, maintain temperatures above 59℉. If the temperature drops below 50℉, leaves may lose their vibrant color. Following frost damage, foliage progressively turns brown or black, and signs like wilting and drooping might appear.

Solutions

Remove any parts damaged by frost. Promptly relocate the plant indoors to a warm area for protection from cold. Position the plant near a south-facing window to ensure sufficient light exposure. Furthermore, avoid placing it near heating units or AC vents to prevent overly dry air.

Signs of Heat Stress in Moonflower

Symptoms

In summer, Moonflower should be kept below 77℉. When temperatures surpass 86℉, leaves become paler, and the plant is more prone to sunburn.

Solutions

Remove any parts that are sunburned and dried. Relocate the plant to an area offering shade from the midday and afternoon sun. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
