What with the recent and soon to be cold nitetime temps I would expect that new plantings would have a tougher time surviving now rather than when this cold passes.

We brought hibiscus and poinsettia with us from home last winter and nursed them thru the cold spells on the enclosed lanai until we could plant later. They are beautiful this year! And I am still covering them as if they were "tender" during the 30 degree nites!
