Freeze damage, 10 days after the event. Pictures shown are pretty much representative of the overall. Pictures posted to establish a bench mark for measurement and demonstration of recovery moving forward.

Here's what's left of the Beijing, Rising, and Tropic Moon series. Three days ago, there was no green showing. It now appears that some green is growing up through the severe damage indicating the stem is still functional to some degree. Hopefully, we'll get enough growth to support the bulbs at least.

This is typical of quite a few young seedlings in the 2 year old category. My main concern here is if the small bulbs will have enough reserve to withstand the ordeal till next spring.

A Don Egger Silver Angel upright. Even this one has a hint of some green returning.

General View. The whole garden has the smell of decaying matter., somewhat like a sour mustard smell. I expect all the larger mature plants will be back next year.

And lots of 'light to moderate' cosmetic damage like this hybrid of Connie's.
