Signs of Heat Stress in Scarlet sage
Symptoms
In summer, Scarlet sage should be kept below 75℉. When temperatures surpass 90℉, the plant's foliage may lighten, curl, become prone to sunburn, and in severe instances, the whole plant might wilt and dry out.
Solutions
Remove any sun-damaged and desiccated portions. Relocate the plant to a spot offering protection from midday and afternoon sun, or use a shade cloth. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
