As long as they don't freeze or get frost, they will be okay. The warmer temps in the daytime keep the roots from getting too cold. The problems start when the daytime temps no longer get warm. I've had them get a hard frost on them and lose all the leaves and start growing new ones right away and even bloom. You can see in this picture that the leaves have been frosted, but the blooms still opened nicely.
