Signs of Cold Stress in Smoketree
Symptoms
Smoketree tolerates cold well and flourishes optimally when temperatures exceed 60℉. In winter, it needs to be maintained above 50℉. If the temperature drops below 40℉, while no immediate changes might be apparent in winter, branches could become fragile and parched in spring, with no new growth appearing.
Solutions
In spring, remove any dead branches that have not produced fresh leaves.
Signs of Heat Stress in Smoketree
Symptoms
In summer, Smoketree should be kept below 75℉. When temperatures surpass 85℉, the plant's leaves might lighten in hue, their tips could dry and shrivel, and the plant becomes more prone to sun damage.
Solutions
Remove any sun-damaged and desiccated sections. Relocate the plant to a spot offering protection from the midday and afternoon sun, or use a shade fabric to provide cover. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
