Signs of Cold Temperatures in Black willow

Symptoms

Black willow tolerates cold well and flourishes best when temperatures exceed 68℉. In winter, it needs to stay above 59℉. If temperatures drop below 50℉, while no immediate changes might be seen in winter, branches can become brittle and dry by spring, with no new growth appearing.

Solutions

In spring, remove any dead branches that haven't produced new foliage.

Signs of High Temperatures in Black willow

Symptoms

During summer, Black willow should be maintained below 77℉. When temperatures go above 86℉, the plant's leaves might lighten in color, their tips could dry and shrivel, and the plant becomes more prone to sun damage.

Solutions

Remove any parts that are sunburned and dried out. Relocate the plant to a spot offering protection from the midday and afternoon sun, or use a shade covering. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
