Signs of Cold Temperatures in Yellowwood

Symptoms

Yellowwood tolerates cold well and flourishes when temperatures are above 60℉. In winter, it needs to stay above 50℉. If the temperature drops below 40℉, even if no immediate winter changes are seen, branches might become brittle and dry in spring, with no new growth appearing.

Solutions

In spring, remove any dead branches that haven't produced new leaves.

Signs of High Temperatures in Yellowwood

Symptoms

In summer, Yellowwood should be maintained below 75℉. When temperatures go above 85℉, the plant's leaves might lighten in color, tips could dry and shrivel, and it becomes more prone to sun damage.

Solutions

Cut off any parts that are sunburned and dried. 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.
