With temperatures rising earlier than in previous years and the sun already shining strong, many plant lovers are asking: Which plants can handle the heat? or What plant is best for a sunny balcony?
If you’ve noticed yellow leaves, burn marks, or your plants looking weak, it may be due to too much heat or sunlight.
Sun and Heat: Not Always a Plant’s Best Friends!
Every plant has its own preferences. Some, like Yucca, enjoy full sun, while others, such as Calathea or Monstera, thrive in low light.
Exposing a low-light indoor plant directly to the sun can result in brown leaves or a sickly appearance.
That’s where VerdiVista comes in. With our plant identification app, all you need is a photo of your plant to get:
Its precise identification (identify a plant by photo),
The ideal temperature it needs to thrive,
The recommended light exposure (shade, partial sun, full sun),
And custom care tips based on the current season.

For example, if you scan an orchid, VerdiVista will show you how to water it properly during the summer, and its preferred temperature range. The same goes for a ficus, pothos, or an indoor cactus—each plant has a complete care guide.
What to Do If Your Plant Is Suffering from the Heat?
- Yellow or burnt leaves? Move your plant to a cooler, shaded area.
- Looking weak? Make sure it’s hydrated—but not overwatered. Use a natural fertilizer for green plants, especially during growth season.
- Dry soil or white mold? Use our app to detect possible diseases or incorrect watering routines.
