Many are tired of the brown so I have been taking a survey of the plants that survived with little or no damage. Not the trees but the shrubs, annuals (pansy pictured), perennials and ground covers that are in easy view. You know, it is hard to find plants that have not been damaged by the cold. Most are going to come back but if you cannot stand the brown here are my selections. From what I have found these are totally reliable down to at least 26 degrees for several hours.

Shrubs:
Dwarf yaupon holly 3 - 4 feet tall
Indian hawthorn 3 feet tall
Dwarf Walter viburnum 4 to 5 feet tall
Loropetalum 3 to 8 feet tall
Pittosporum 3 - 6 feet with pruning
Camellias – 3 to 12 feet tall Shi-Shi Gashira
Anise – 12 feet tall
Nandina – varying sizes – some reddish foliage
Feijoa - pineapple guava – 12 feet

Ground covers:
Flax lily 2 feet tall - slight burn
Bulbine 18 inches tall
African iris 2 feet tall
Liriope 18 inches tall
Asiatic jasmine – some bronzing
Amazon lilies – shade white flowers winter
Coontie – have not seen but expect minimal damage

Annuals :
Pansies and violas – no damage still blooming
Petunias – flower damage quick recovery
Annual phlox – minimal damage still blooming
Dusty miller - silver foliage - no damage
