My angel plant grew fast and tall this summer.
The came autumn and the change of weather.
From all that I've read, this plant can be left outside
(WA state Zone 8-9) during the winter... or it
should be brought in doors to keep the cold away.

I have this plant in a big pot and decided I didn't want
to
risk the weather and so brought it into the house. Leaves
were dropping everywhere even though I had put it in a
place where it rec'd plenty of light and steady
temperature.

Back outside it goes and the shedding stopped. Then the
freeze and now the plant looks ugh.

Will it grow back come Spring time? It's about 4 feet
tall
so I don't want to lose it. It grew that much in one
spring/
summer.

I do have the pot insulated.

Any experience out there when it comes to Angel Plants?

TIA

No idea about the angel plant (or even what one is) but
did you really have a freeze already in zone 8-9? Out here
on the other side of the country in zone 6 I haven't even
been close to freezing yet and had planned on putting off
bringing in my tender plants until next month.


Correction, angel "Trumpet" plant. And, yes, it's been at
the
freezing level here for a couple of days. Made the mistake
of
walking on my lawn when it was frozen....nice footprints.
