Signs of Cold Stress in Cylindrical snake plant

Symptoms

Cylindrical snake plant flourishes in warm conditions and does not tolerate cold. Optimal growth occurs when temperatures exceed 65℉. In winter, maintain temperatures above 60℉. If the temperature drops below 50℉, the plant may weaken, droop, and be susceptible to root decay. Minor frost damage might not show immediate signs, but the plant will progressively decline after about a week.

Solutions

Remove any frost-damaged sections, checking for root rot. If roots are rotted, trim them and consider propagating new plants from cuttings. Promptly relocate the plant indoors to a warm spot, positioning it near a south-facing window for abundant light. If natural light is inadequate, provide supplementary illumination.
