Frost Protection:
Citrus, succulents, and other tender plants require protection
when nighttime frost is predicted. To shelter tender plants in
your garden beds, try one of the following methods ...
¤
Box: For small plants, cut out the bottom of a
large cardboard box. Tape together the box-top flaps, then
cut along three sides of the top so that a hinged lid remains.
Set the box over the plant, keeping the lid closed at night and
open during the day for light.
¤
Canopy: For a larger plant, set four stakes (each
several inches taller than the plant itself) around the plant’s
perimeter. Then drape the stakes with a frost cover, burlap
cloth, or an old blanket. Don’t let the cover come into
direct contact with foliage, as it will transfer those freezing
temperatures to the leaves and damage them! Remove the
canopy during the day.
¤
Spray: For larger plants you can spray them
with 'Cloud Cover' available in quart and gallon sizes.
