Japanese flowering quince tolerates cold well and flourishes optimally when temperatures exceed 60℉. In winter, it needs to be maintained above 50℉. If the temperature drops below 32℉, while no immediate changes might be apparent in winter, 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 Japanese flowering quince
Symptoms
During summer, Japanese flowering quince should be kept below 75℉. When temperatures surpass 85℉, the plant's leaves may lighten in hue, their tips might 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.
