Signs of Cold Temperatures in Chickasaw plum

Symptoms

Chickasaw plum tolerates cold well and flourishes best when temperatures exceed 65℉. In winter, it needs to stay above 50℉. If temperatures drop below 40℉, while no immediate changes might be seen in winter, branches can become brittle and dry by spring, preventing new growth.

Solutions

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

Signs of High Temperatures in Chickasaw plum

Symptoms

In summer, Chickasaw plum should be maintained below 75℉. When temperatures go above 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.
