Symptoms
Cucumber tree tolerates cold well and flourishes when temperatures exceed 60℉. In winter, it needs to stay above 50℉. If the temperature drops below 30℉, even if no immediate winter damage is visible, branches might become brittle and dry by spring, with no new growth appearing.
Solutions
In spring, remove any dead branches that haven't produced new foliage.

Symptoms
In summer, Cucumber tree should be maintained below 75℉. When temperatures surpass 85℉, the plant's leaves may lighten, tips might dry and shrivel, and it becomes more prone to sun damage.
Solutions
Remove any sun-damaged and desiccated sections. Relocate the plant to a spot offering protection from the midday and afternoon sun, or use a shade fabric. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
