Euonymus Kathy brown leaves

Hi all, I recently put some euonymus Kathy plants in the ground and the leaves have now gone curled and brown. Some have gone completely white aswell? 

I put them in the week before we got that frost suddenly come back last month so that probably didn't help.

Just wanted to make sure it was nothing serious or how to solve it if it is? 



The images are sideways for some reason :p Thanks for any help.

    Just cold damage. Nothing to worry about, although some varieties are not reliably hardy anyway, if you're in a colder area. You can remove the damaged parts once all frosty weather is over.
    Plants are often grown in protected conditions too, so, even with tougher shrubs, it's a shock for them to be planted straight out in winter or early spring.  :)

    I have three different ones, been in the ground for many years, all looking like that from frost damage, the leaves will drop off soon then you can see what you need to cut back.

    Thank you for the replies. I did suspect this was the case. I think I planted them way to early in spring (I got over excited). I'm glad it's not a major issue though. I'll wait a little then cut back the struggling areas. Thanks again, that makes me feel a little relieved that they will come back again.
