Hi, this is my first thread in this forum.

About a month and a half ago I replaced a vine on one of my trellises with a couple of passion vines, recognising that they would soon die back, but they would be ready to go in the Spring. Well, in spite of colder than usual weather that came earlier than usual, those crazy things are still growing (even though we have had freezing temps every couple of days or so - very unusual for us at this time.) There are a bunch of caterpillars, happily eating away, but will they freeze?
