Symptoms
During summer, Chinese silk vine should be kept below 77℉. When temperatures surpass 86℉, the plant's leaves may lighten in hue, 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 midday and afternoon sun, or employ a shade cloth. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
