Signs of Cold Stress in Winged elm
Symptoms
Winged elm tolerates cold well and flourishes optimally when temperatures exceed 60℉. In winter, it needs to stay above 50℉. If temperatures drop below 30℉, while no immediate winter changes might be apparent, branches can become brittle and dry by spring, with no new growth emerging.
Solutions
In spring, remove any dead branches that have not produced new foliage.
Signs of Heat Stress in Winged elm
Symptoms
In summer, Winged elm should be maintained below 75℉. When temperatures surpass 85℉, the plant's leaves might lighten in hue, their tips could dry and shrivel, and the plant becomes more prone to sun damage.
Solutions
Remove the sun-damaged and desiccated sections. Relocate the plant to a spot offering protection from the midday and afternoon sun, or use a shade cloth for cover. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
