3 gallon plant in very open area of my backyard was covered with a bucket during this cold event, with 29 and 31 lows. It came out looking a little less happy than going in, but still looks pretty darn good!

I've got a small one planted in the ground. It experienced 29 degrees twice this December. It has only been in the ground since last summer (2010). I was out of town so couldn't protect it. But, it looks okay.

Did it get frost or is it under canopy?

No frost, but open sky above. However, in a wind protected spot between a huge live oak and seagrape hedge. Also, a two story shed is nearby, so it is in a very protected area. I would say the low it saw was at least 30F.
