We know that it can be difficult to keep your plants safe from frost or snow when you live in a place like the UK where we have drastically different weather patterns across our small country, but don’t worry—we have some tips for protecting your plants regardless of where you live!
The first thing you need to do is make sure that your plants are adequately insulated by putting something around them like plant fleece to keep them warm at night when it gets colder outside.
Looking for something to protect your plants in the colder months?
We have just what you need!
Our range of cloches are perfect for keeping your plants protected from the cold weather while still letting them absorb all that lovely sunshine! They're lightweight, easy to use and come in different sizes depending on how big your plant is. Plus they're really affordable too so there's no reason not to invest in one today!
You can also use a cold frame to keep your plants protected, think of a cold frame as essentially a mini greenhouse, you can get various types to go straight on the ground, or over plants, or you can even build your own one!
Insulation
Besides using cloches and cold frames, it is wise to try and protect your plants for as long as you can. One way of doing so is by planting them deep enough in their pots - this prevents moisture from escaping from within. When summer arrives again, you can easily lift them out of their pots if need be.
