Snip off all spent flowers and flowers the frost damages. Cut at the base of the stem where flowers grow from the main stem.
Prune leaves that appear wilted or blackened after your first light frost. Snip off as little of the plant as possible to leave enough foliage to help protect it against future frosts.
Cut damaged stems, including leaves and flowers, when they appear wilted, soft or dark colored. Cut back to healthy stem tissue that the frost has not damaged.
Prune damaged leaves and flowers again after each successive frost. This practice will help your plant to survive until harder frosts begin to occur.
