Best thing to do with a frost damaged hebe and cistus

dappledshade

We reached sustained temps of -6 in London, and I’ve noticed that one of  y smaller hebes has frost damaged distal leaves, which are floppy. The flower stalks are there but they’re flopping a bit too.
is it possible that they’ll still open this year? If so, I suppose I could just cut off the damaged bits once they’ve flowered, no?

My cistus is looking sorry for itself too - slightly discoloured, floppy distal, leaves.
What’s the best course of action for this one, please?

Many thanks for your advice 🙏🏻

Probably wait and see. It depends how bad the damage is but some hebes are more vulnerable than others and cistus don't like too much frost. I would leave them be and wait to see how far they recover by the end of March or even April .
