In severe cases, it may even die. Therefore, during the growing season in spring and autumn, Huangli should be placed outdoors in full sunlight with sufficient light. It should be properly shaded in midsummer. When the temperature drops below 5℃ in winter, it should be moved indoors to overwinter, and try to choose a sunny room.
