Hi, we had an ice storm last week. As most of you are used to this sort of
weather, I'm not! Now our crazy weather is back in the 50's, I am looking
at several dead or hopefully playing dead plants!!!
I have 5 Hibiscus, that look dead- should I shear them to ground in hopes of a
return?
I have 5 Mandaville vines that look dead also, should I cut them to the ground
too?
I have 2 winter Jasmines, that look partially dead!
My Gardenias made it (!!) I'm really shocked!
I also think our Hawthorns are dead:( So, should I wait till early spring and
cut back and hope they will all have new growth? Or should I cut back now, or
just come out of denial and toss them out??
Thank you for any comments!
