    They do end up with a lot of brown bits that can be cut off near the stem. The important part is the very top. Are there new leaves growing there? If so, it's fine. If the top looks dead I'd still leave it a while as it maybe have been badly affected by the wet cold winter but may soon recover. Personally I'd try and remove any dead stuff from the top to allow plenty of sun in and stop it rotting. It really is just the top central parts you need to worry about with them.
