The cold we had at Christmas made the leaves fall off of a bunch of my plants like the Aristolochia and Clitoria vines. Now I can trim them back where they were taking over. These vines were much hardier than I thought, they are putting out lots of new growth, so it didn't kill them.
The blue potato bushes, hibiscus and morning glory bushes got trimmed too and are all growing new leaves. Can you believe some of the coleus are putting out new growth at the base of the stem? These are the ones that I covered with piles of hay. I hope the freeze killed the pesky mealybugs that have been a thorn in my side for months!
