Scorched leaves

Question from Ian Jackson

Hi, My plant is in a large container facing east, during the cold spell that we have had with very cold easterly winds the leaves of the plant got very badly scorched. I have removed all the scorched leaves and some of the dead stems. Will this plant come back to life or have I lost it.
