Signs of Cold Stress in Common hornbeam

Symptoms

Common hornbeam tolerates cold well, but winter temperatures should stay above 14℉. If temperatures fall below this, while winter changes might not be obvious, branches can become brittle and dry by spring, with no new growth appearing.

Solutions

During spring, remove any dead branches that haven't produced new foliage.

Signs of Heat Stress in Common hornbeam

Symptoms

Common hornbeam does not handle high temperatures well. When temperatures go above 77℉, it might shed many leaves, and in extreme cases, the whole plant could wilt and perish.

Solutions

Remove any sun-damaged and dried sections. Relocate the plant to a spot offering protection from the midday and afternoon sun, or use a shade fabric. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
