Harvest basil and other tender herbs before a light frost (when the temperature drops to 32 degrees Fahrenheit). 2  Even if they survive the frost, they don't do well in cold temperatures. 3  The same is true for most annuals.
This article contains pictures of frost damaged flowers for growers and home fruit growers who wish to determine frost damage after a freeze. At or near the bloom stage, the critical temperature is the same for almost all fruits and flowers. Freezing temperatures of 28 degrees Fahrenheit will result in about a 10 percent loss and 24 F in a 90 percent loss. In a radiation freeze with clear, calm conditions, fruit on higher sites or in the tops of trees will be less damaged than those at lower sites.
