Answer
Hi Jim,
Thanx for your question.  The best thing to do now for the plants is to keep them hydrated and mulched with some straw to keep their feet cool.  They'll recover.  Give them a side-dressing of well-composted manure to make sure they get enough nutrition to heal themselves.  I hope this helps.
