I must contribute also. My Ice Cream made through a few nights in the very low 30's without losing any leaves. It was an unusually cold winter for us here in zone 9 Florida. We are only about 3 miles from the ocean so it keeps the temps from staying in the 30's. Allot of the strawberry farmers had substantial losses, however. I would say the Ice Cream tolerates light-temporary freezes overnight, but it must remain between 40-50 degrees during the day for it to stay alive.
