Notes:
What is this 5′ high shrub with variegated leaves and what steps are recommended after severe frost killed many of the branches? Do you think it could be cut to ground and re-grown or it is best to remove it entirely and replant with a new one?

Maybe Japanese pittosoprum ‘ Variegata” (Pittosporum tobira )? Check out the included link below for how to identifying pittosporum freeze damage & tip on proper pruning. Hope this will help you to decide whether to save or replace the shrub. Best wishes!
