Usually takes a pretty hard freeze to stop rebloom - below 25oF.
Lighter frosts and freezes can damage open blooms, sometimes buds
showing color, and can stunt stalks, but more stalks will grow in warm
spells we get in between. As you grow more rebloomers, you will
probably find that many cultivars like to really start putting up stalks
just in time to get busted by that first hard freeze.

the rebloom?>
