They got left out one night when there was a frost and now they're a bit brown and droopy. How can I revive them, if possible? Thank you

cut all the brown droopy stuff off of them and let them be for a few days to a couple of weeks. the frost could have just taken the top part of your plant and not what is beneath the soil. leave them in a sunny place and make sure they do not get completely dry. you may have just shocked the plant and not totally killed it. this happened to me with an aloe, jade tree and several cactuses that were left out and were frost bitten. i cut everything back they are still thriving today.

Just watch it for a couple of days. If it all turns brown, soft and wilted they are goners. If they still have some green, there's hope. Some of mine have looked pretty dead before and then I noticed some little green shoots popping up. So I always give it a little more time.

Usually, when a plant is left outside, & the frost gets to it, it just gives up, what kinda plant was it, an annual, or a bulb plant, if it was a bulb plant, it will come up again.

just wait a few days before doing anything to them if they turn completly brown then they are dead....if there is green still left on them then they are salvagable...just give them some tlc and they should take off again

If they're wearing a medic alert tag that says, " DNR". (Do Not Revive.)
