Light

Temperature

When confronted with elevated temperatures, careful attention should be given to hydration and adequate shading as a precaution against sun damage. That being said, the Silver bush doesn't have a great resistance to colder climates. It can endure a certain level of cold, however, extremely cold conditions may result in frost damage.
