Signs of Cold Temperatures in European plum

Symptoms

European plum tolerates cold well and flourishes best when temperatures are above 60℉. In winter, it needs to stay above 50℉. If the temperature drops below 32℉, while no immediate changes might be seen in winter, branches can become brittle and dry in spring, preventing new growth.

Solutions

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

Signs of High Temperatures in European plum

Symptoms

In summer, European plum should be maintained below 75℉. When temperatures go above 85℉, the plant's leaves might lighten, tips could dry and wither, and it becomes more prone to sunburn.

Solutions

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