Re: Winter mulch: Good idea or bad idea?
I doubt, that your leaves will rot, if they remain exposed as your weather allows. The
frozen parts of the leaves will more likely dry up more, as they have already done at
the edges. If there follows a period of no frost, you will probably notice signs of
recovery and emergence of new leaves. Just monitor the weather forecasts and cover
them up, when frost is threatening and they will be alright. 
Once they have recovered, in February, you may want to slice all the dead parts of the
leaves off.
