    Hello everyone - I have a climbing star jasmine that is quite large and it seems to have had a very hard time this winter - is there anything I can do, to give it a fighting chance. Some leaves have fallen, other turned red and it just looks kind of sad. Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    Wait and see if it comes back from the stems. This is the kind of thing that happens when tender plants are planted as hardy ones. All it takes is a few hours below the minimum temperature for a plant. The fact that years may go by without incident does not cancel the effects of that first time it gets too cold.
