Will crate myrtle come back with new leaves if they get froze?

Crape myrtle (Lagerstroemia) is generally hardy and can recover from freezing temperatures. If the branches and buds are damaged by frost, the plant may still produce new growth from the base or lower branches in the spring. However, severe freeze damage can hinder its overall health and flowering for the season. Regular pruning of any dead or damaged wood can help promote new growth.
