Signs of Cold Stress in Common Sweetleaf

Symptoms

Common Sweetleaf tolerates cold well and flourishes when temperatures are above 60℉. In winter, maintain temperatures above 50℉. If temperatures drop below 40℉, 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 leaves.

Signs of Heat Stress in Common Sweetleaf

Symptoms

In summer, Common Sweetleaf should be kept below 75℉. When temperatures surpass 85℉, the plant's leaves may lighten in color, tips might dry and shrivel, and it becomes more prone to sunburn.

Solutions

Prune off any sunburned and dried sections. 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.
