Frost Damage Or Box Blight

Question

My box hedge was looking lush when we had the snap frost in may.Soon after the leaves on top became white/yellow. There is no dying off & there is fresh growth under the damaged leaves & on the same stem.The sides of the box are unaffected. I am hoping this is frost damage & not blight

Answer 1

I do think that it was cold damage. This will have to repair itself, and it will take quite awhile. Just care for the tree as usual.
