Plant Protection – It’s a Wrap

While the temperatures loom below freezing, wrap your more sensitive plants in frost cloth available at your local garden center. But remember that ventilation even in winter time is important to avoid fungus growth on the plant. You can also use dead pine branches to keep your plants protected from freezing rain or snow. Group potted plants together because, believe it or not, they share warmth.

What’s your favorite method for keeping your plants warm in the wintertime?
