I brought my poinsettia into the garage. The hibiscus is overgrowing the patio, so I would love if it frosted out. We had one at our first house that "died" in a frost, and I rejoiced because the fallen blossoms were staining the driveway when my husband backed over them before I could pick them up. Unfortunately it sprang back to life the next spring. And that bougainvillea (aka California interstate weed) that we inherited with this house is also welcome to bite the dust.
