I live in S FL and we did have a noght of freezing weather a few weeks ago. I finally saw what can happen to my babies if not covered well. Should you cut off the burnt leaves if some of the leaf is still green. and also at what point should i remove a dead leaf. or should i not remove it and let gravity take care of it.
thanks brandankinfortpiercefl

did you really mean to stay out of the flowerbeds?

you can leave it on if it still has green on it, it wont hurt it. if its all brown and crispy you can take it off.

When you do cut them off it is a good idea to cut them up and place them at the base of the tree, they love it!!

i always throw my "green stuff" into the compost bucket. it will get reused and i would rather do that then throw it away and let it sit in a land fil.
