This is good to hear! Even in zone 8 my Evergreens look dead and/or lethargic. I do not believe this is going to revive itself. It will die the rest of the way when new growth starts coming out. By the way I cut these back when I saw they had rust and that was around the end of October then new growth appeared quickly and was lush and green, no rust. Then the freezing weather and so they are sick looking in a different way. They seem to be yelling 'Help me, please help me!' LOL.

Evergreens from Floyd Cove.

Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Mat.6:28-29
