Dutch Hyacinth and Daff blossoms - hurt by frost?

Dallas, GA(Zone 7b)

It has been fairly mild for several weeks, and our flowers are just beautiful. But tonight, we're expecting it to stay in the high 20's for most of the night and I'm just a tad worried.

Should I pick them all to enjoy indoors? Or will they be fine outside?

thx!

Jo, are they planted close to your house or out in the open? Close to the house they'll get some protection from the cold. They'll probably be okay anyway. We've been getting nights that cold here and my friend who has hundreds of daffs in the beds around her yard hasn't seen any effect except the ones that were in bud tend to droop at the head a little. They still bloom fine.

We had snow here last night and this morning and the few daffs I have out in the yard weren't hurt by the cold.
