Signs of Heat Stress in Spatterdock
Symptoms
Spatterdock does not tolerate elevated temperatures well. When temperatures surpass 85℉, its development ceases, and it becomes more prone to decay.
Solutions
Prune off any sun-damaged and desiccated portions. Relocate the plant to an area 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.
