I covered everything with frost blankets but the banana tree, elephant ear, and bougainvilleas lost a lot of leaves. I won’t know until spring if it killed any of the Bougainvillea branches. Thank goodness we made frost frames out of pvc, for the lemon and lime trees. That way the frost blankets didn’t touch their leaves and damage them. Our lime has blossoms and the lemon has lots of fruit on the tree. Both came through unharmed and didn’t lose a leave. The frost blankets with the frames worked! Yea! I will trim in March.
