Arnold:

The leaves on the Boophane haemanthoides went limp in very cold temps, but
returned to normal when the temps rose above freezing.

TONY;

Did the foliage die back or remain green and go flaccid from the cold.
My boophone disticha lose their leaves and shrivel a bit ( indoors of
course). I give a sprinkle around the edge of the pot and that seems
to help them through our unbearable winter.

Any pictures , please.
