Default Frozen potato plants coming back?

Hi,
Planted in Tucson, AZ,, 2600' elevation. Lost all 24 potato plants
during last frost. I never expected deep frost in Arizona this soon in
the winter. I'm not sure if anybody else didn't as well.

I still water the dead leaf growth above ground. Am I wasting water?
Is there hope?

Next time, four or more inches of straw over ANY questionable planting.
Why I didn't this time when I alwys do? ? Why ask such a question?

Thanks folks, Mike
