Just pull off any dead leaves and allow the branches to remain intact until you can tell what is dead wood and what is still growing. Once you can tell that this Spring, trim off the dead wood and you'll be fine. Just don't fertilize it while it's blooming...that makes it drop all it's flowers and buds at once.
Reply:You should cut it just before the bottom branch
