Signs of Heat Stress in Purple moorgrass

Symptoms

During summer, Purple moorgrass should be maintained below 70℉. When temperatures surpass 80℉, the plant's foliage might lighten, curl, become prone to sun damage, and in severe instances, the entire plant may wilt and desiccate.

Solutions

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