In summer, Cascade bilberry should be kept below 70℉. When temperatures surpass 75℉, the plant's leaves might lighten in hue, their tips could dry and shrivel, and the plant becomes more prone to sun damage.

Remove any parts that are sunburned and desiccated. Relocate the plant to an area offering protection from the midday and afternoon sun, or use a shade fabric to provide cover. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
