- hujuanjuan: what's the meaning of "killing frost"? Looking forward you answer.Sometimes, if it gets very cold, like -5 degrees C, the frost will kill any plants that can be frozen. We call that a "killing frost." At other times, if the temperature only reaches 0 degrees C (32 degrees F), only a little frost may form. Sometimes it only forms on the tips of plant leaves and does not kill them. That is still frost, but is not a killing frost.
