I have a small sweet tamarind tree in the front yard -- about 3-4 ft tall and a trunk about a 1/4 wide. It got zapped by unseasonal temps of 28-29 for several hours over the course of two nights. It immediately dropped all leaves and is a stick. The tree is still pliable and there appears to be green under the bark.
Do small tamarind trees typically recover from such severe cold damage? The sad thing is that I didn't protect it at all because I was told that tamarind was pretty cold hardy and I expected the temps to not go below 32F -- I'm on top of a hill so the microclimate stinks here (it's typically colder than the local weather report.).
