Cold tolerance of Bidens ferulifolia
Bidens ferulifolia (Jacq.) DC.
Bidens ferulifolia is a heat-loving crop with low resistance to sub-zero temperatures. The plant dies at temperatures of 0…-1 °C, which precludes overwintering in open ground under temperate climate conditions.
In the reference 5 varieties crop Apache beggartick, where this is mentioned in the description.
Bidens ferulifolia possesses extremely high sensitivity to low temperatures and is unable to withstand even brief, light frosts. Exposure to a temperature range of 0…-1 °C leads to plant death.
Due to the lack of resistance to sub-zero temperatures, Bidens ferulifolia is grown exclusively as an annual ornamental crop in regions with cold climates. There is no information regarding the possibility of freezing produce for technological purposes, as the species is not edible.
