Summer Stress
water stress: not enough moisture is available in thesoil for the plants to take up
- more water is needed
heat stress: there is adequate water available to the plant, but transpiration exceeds the root system’s ability to take up moisture, so the foliage wilts in the hot dry air
- adding more water may cause the roots to rot
- provide mulch and shade
