Signs of Cold Stress in Black bat flower

Symptoms

Black bat flower favors warm conditions and cannot withstand low temperatures. It flourishes optimally when temperatures exceed 75℉. In winter, it needs to be maintained above 65℉. If the temperature drops below 55℉, foliage may lose some color. Following frost damage, the leaves progressively turn brown or black, and signs like wilting and drooping might appear.

Solutions

Remove any parts damaged by frost. Promptly relocate the plant indoors to a warm setting for protection from cold. Select a location near a south-facing window for the plant, ensuring sufficient light. Furthermore, avoid positioning the plant near heating units or AC vents to prevent overly dry air.
