Euonymus

This is what is left of my Euonymus as the rest of it died off over winter 😞 
Will it regrow and fill back out? 

Thanks

    Often reddish tips on plants show a potassium deficiency. How old is the compost?

    It should do, they are quite tough plants. Keep it watered and when you see new growth some feed might help.

    It may not survive. Many of them aren't hardy where I am, even in the ground and in reasonably sheltered spots. 
    It doesn't look great, so I wouldn't hold my breath with that one, especially as the rest has succumbed.

    Thinking about it that reddish hue is more to do with cold at this time of year. I never see them in pots here.

    They're quite useful in pots, but if the rest of it has died, the remaining part is unlikely to return well - if at all. If you don't need the pot @dhawksworth1201, you could tuck it somewhere sheltered, out of extremes of weather, and see  :)
    You might even be able to repot it into something a bit smaller - removing the dead part. That way, it won't be sitting in too much soil which could get very wet. That won't help it.
