Signs of Cold Stress in Hollyleaf cherry
Symptoms
Hollyleaf cherry exhibits moderate resilience to cold and flourishes optimally when temperatures exceed 60℉. Throughout winter, it should be maintained above 50℉. Should the temperature drop below 30℉, its foliage might begin to sag. In minor instances, recovery is possible, but severe cases lead to wilting and eventual leaf drop.
Solutions
Remove any parts damaged by frost. Before subsequent exposure to low temperatures, cover the plant with materials like non-woven fabric or cloth, and erect a windbreak to shield it from cold gusts.

Symptoms
In summer, Hollyleaf cherry should be kept below 75℉. When temperatures surpass 85℉, the leaves' hue lightens, tips may dry and shrivel, leaves might curl, and the plant becomes more prone to sun damage.
Solutions
Prune off any sunburnt and desiccated sections. Relocate the plant to a spot offering protection from the midday and afternoon sun, or deploy a shade cloth for cover. Irrigate the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
