Signs of Cold Temperatures in California buckeye
Symptoms
California buckeye tolerates cold well and grows best when temperatures are above 60℉. In winter, it needs to stay above 50℉. If temperatures drop below 40℉, even if no immediate changes are seen in winter, branches might become brittle and dry in spring, preventing new growth.
Solutions
In spring, remove any dead branches that haven't produced new leaves.

Symptoms
In summer, California buckeye should be kept below 75℉. When temperatures go above 85℉, the plant's leaves might lighten, tips could dry and wither, and it becomes more prone to sunburn.
Solutions
Cut off any sunburned and dried sections. Relocate the plant to a spot shaded from midday and afternoon sun, or use a shade cloth. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
