My Cherries Jubilee Allamanda looks horrible! It experienced cold-damage (not frost damage) which showed up a week and half later from the cold snap during the beginning of January. This past weekend we had a horrible hailstorm which knocked many leaves off. Even though, it looks terrible it will recover in a month or two. Photo taken Feb. 12, 2013.

Thanks ladies! :>)
Terratoonie, did the hailstorm damage your plants?
The hailstorm lasted 1/2 hour. I've never ever seen a hailstorm last so long in my life! Some freeways and streets were closed because of the accumulation of hail. The weather starting in January has been very strange and unusual for San Diego.
My vine is actually starting to put out some new shoots. We are getting into some warmer weather...tomorrow is forecasted to be 80ºF (27ºC) here. I hope the warm weather stays around for a while!

Wow - it is not a happy plant at all! At least it'll recover.

No, it's not happy at all!!! Yes, it'll recover; however, if the winter was as warm as last year, it most likely would be still blooming. This winter since January has been much cooler than normal. Many of my plants are hating it! :>(
