Signs of Cold Stress in Overcup oak

Symptoms

Overcup oak tolerates cold well and flourishes best when temperatures exceed 65℉. In winter, it needs to stay above 50℉. If temperatures drop below 40℉, while winter changes might not be obvious, branches can become brittle and dry by spring, with no new growth appearing.

Solutions

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

Signs of Heat Stress in Overcup oak

Symptoms

During summer, Overcup oak should be maintained below 75℉. When temperatures surpass 85℉, the plant's leaves might lighten in hue, tips could dry and shrivel, and it becomes more prone to sun damage.

Solutions

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