Will It Come Back?

I purchased a beautiful begonia last summer that was full of small orangy red flowers and was sold as a hanging plant. When we were expecting a freeze (a few weeks ago), I put it along with some tropical potted plants in a shed without a heater. It got colder than expected, and the begonia was one of the casualties. Its branches melted and died. When I went to see if I could salvage anything, I noticed it had a big tuber underneath that I brought in and planted in another pot. So far, nothing is happening. How do I tell if it will make it? How long until it puts out shoots? Does it need to be in a window? Should I give up on it yet?
