I'm so mad at our stupid Texas weather! We haven't gotten a hint of winter until yesterday, when - within one hour - the temp suddenly dropped below 40 (from the 70s)! Long story short, this sanchezia was left out (I figure the temps were around 35 during the dark night hours) in the cold for a few hours (5-6?), and when I got home, it looked like this! This was an extremely healthy plant - is it salvagable? Should I cut all of the dead leaves off? I plan on leaving it in this sunny window until spring...

Thanks for the advice!
