No frost no freeze,Croton petra still wilted.

Ah,very disappointing. I even covered it. But three nights in the 35f range caused the top growth to wilt and become soft. At least last year it made it fine until January.
I'm going to look for Stoplight,And the lobed Croton as they have a great record in California.
btw- Banana and Brugs..no sign of any cold damage. I dont get why the Croton..
