Signs of Heat Stress in Trident maple
Symptoms
Trident maple struggles with high temperatures. When the temperature goes above 75℉, it might shed many leaves, and in severe cases, the whole plant could wilt and die.
Solutions
Cut off any parts that are scorched and dried out. 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.
