I live south of 44. Covered most non-native plants. Some Hibiscus are burnt and the tops of a few palms. In any case, I'll leave them alone until March or later.
Back in Virginia, we planted Hibiscus (they may have been a different variety) and they died back each year. In spring, you either leave the stalks or cut them to the ground. By Summer they were 3' tall and near 4' by fall -- where they die off again.

It's way higher than the rest but I just had to leave it! My grass is completely burned out from the freeze.  |
