Signs of Cold Stress in Broom tea-tree

Symptoms

Broom tea-tree tolerates cool conditions moderately well and flourishes when temperatures exceed 65℉. In winter, maintain temperatures above 50℉. If the temperature drops below 30℉, foliage may begin to sag. Minor cases can recover, but severe instances lead to wilting and eventual leaf drop.

Solutions

Remove any parts damaged by frost. Before future cold spells, cover the plant with materials like non-woven fabric or cloth, and build a windbreak to shield it from cold gusts.
