    Losing leaves when bringing a plant indoors is normal due to the lower light levels, humidity, etc. It is not necessary to fertilize a plant during winter's rest.

    Continue to water when the soil begins to dry and reapply Neem oil once a week till the pest is no longer visible. When overwintering plants, the goal is to get them through the winter; do not expect flowering or a lot of growth. After the threat of frost has passed in spring, you can move it back outside.

    If your crepe jasmine got hit by frost, then wait until late February to mid-March before pruning to avoid more cold damage. Once the risk has passed, trim dead or damaged branches to boost airflow and light. If it’s really bad, you can cut it close to the ground in spring to encourage fresh growth. After pruning, keep up with watering, mulch to protect the roots, and watch for pests or disease. With a little care, it should bounce back just fine!
