Reply:i live in Zone 7a, and had it die off last year. I will not plant it again for my zone. It was not a usual cold winter. I have some crossvine on the same side of the house and it is still thriving.
Reply:Carolina Jessamine will die back when it hits freezing. Evergreens vines for your area include Euanymous, ivys. Most vines which have great flowers will also lose their leaves for the winter.
