Signs of Cold Temperatures in Boston ivy
Symptoms
Boston ivy tolerates cold well and flourishes best when temperatures are above 60℉. In winter, it needs to stay above 50℉. If temperatures drop below 40℉, while no immediate changes might be seen in winter, branches can become brittle and dry in spring, with no new growth appearing.
Solutions
In spring, remove any dead branches that haven't produced new leaves.
Signs of Warm Temperatures in Boston ivy
Symptoms
During summer, Boston ivy should be maintained below 75℉. When temperatures go above 85℉, the plant's leaves might lighten in color, their tips could dry and shrivel, and the plant becomes more prone to sun damage.
Solutions
Cut off any sun-damaged and dried sections. Relocate the plant to a spot offering protection from midday and afternoon sun, or use a shade fabric for cover. Water the plant in the morning and evening to keep its soil damp.
