Signs of Cold Stress in Chinese coffintree
Symptoms
Chinese coffintree exhibits moderate resilience to cold and flourishes optimally when temperatures exceed 50℉. In winter, it should be maintained above 45℉. If the temperature drops below 40℉, foliage may begin to sag. Minor instances allow recovery, but severe cases lead to wilting and eventual leaf drop.
Solutions
Remove any parts damaged by frost. Before subsequent exposure to low temperatures, cover the plant with materials like non-woven fabric or cloth, and erect a windbreak to shield it from cold gusts.
