Agree with Noseypotter, mine started to sprout elsewhere after last years frost. It might take a while though, you may not see anything in the Spring..
Covered them this year with wadding and it still happened...

Previous question
the tops are dead but leave the trunks as you may well get new growth from the base . if and when you do you can cut the old trunks back and dont forget to rap them next winter being so cold .
