This seedling regrew in 2022 to about the same size it was before being frozen to the ground in December 2021. Showed moderate to serious leaf damage, but no clear stem damage, in Nov 2022 freeze. Mostly dead above ground after 17°F with just an unheated upside-down terracotta pot protecting it, but regrew nicely in 2023.
