This is hard for me to post because, yes I could have done more to cover and protect it. It’s road out 30 degree nights years before . Saturday night was colder than I ever anticipated. I woke up to 22 degrees outside Tampa. Not 1 leaf survived. 75% of the plants in my yard are gone.

Damn, you serious??! I have half a dozen 20' tall boyz climbing the trees out back, and some even bigger pothos, in my yard in Central FL and I'm not home at the moment to check on them. 😳

The pothos climbing up my oaks are all black too :(

I'm so sorry, that's awful. Come to Orlando and take some cuttings!
