Care Guide

☀️ Light Full sun
Erect willow comes from environments that are not closed off, like bright fields and edges of forests, where light is abundant. It flourishes under full sunlight, however, it can also adapt to partial sunlight, demonstrating a good tolerance towards different lighting conditions.
🌡️ Temperature 0–32.2°C
The erect willow has a notable capacity to adapt to a range of weather conditions, from hot summers to freezing winters. Nonetheless, there is a specific temperature range within which it grows best. If the temperature rises excessively, the plant could suffer from heat and humidity stress, potentially leading to its death. In areas where the temperatures fall near to its cold tolerance limit, applying measures to insulate the plant is critical for its protection.
