Will the fortune tree freeze to death in sub-zero temperatures in winter? What should I do if it freezes to death?

1. Will I freeze to death?

If you place the money tree in a sub-zero environment, it will be frozen to death because it is not cold-resistant. When the temperature is below 5℃, it will be frostbitten, and in severe cases it may be frozen to death, not to mention the temperature below 0℃. It is best to move it to a warm place in winter, keep the temperature at around 12-15℃, and do a good job of water control. Only in this way can it survive the winter safely.

2. What to do if you freeze to death

If the trunk of the money tree has turned grayish white, it means it is beyond help. But if the situation is still serious enough, it is possible to save it after a series of rescue efforts.

1. Adjust the temperature: The money tree needs to be placed in a warmer place and the temperature should be adjusted to above 10°C. If the low temperature continues, it will freeze to death.

2. Prune frozen branches: Check whether there are any frostbitten branches on the plant. If so, cut them off. As long as the temperature is suitable for a period of time, it will grow new branches and leaves.

3. Appropriate exposure to sunlight: It should also be allowed to see sunlight appropriately, and avoid being kept in a too dark environment. You can place it on the balcony or windowsill, and try to let the leaves of the plant get more sunlight.
