just throw the comforter over the superbum again, if all the leaves freeze off it will be fine. it will take 6+ hours of really cold temps below 28 to freeze that one so it would die completely because of the mass of the trunk. That mass holds heat. Dont waste your time convincing the neighbors to get a hernia for you...lol...
