  • Cover plants overnight with lightweight fabric or an inverted bucket to provide an extra layer of protection from frost.
  • Water plants thoroughly before a frosty night, as moist soil retains more heat and helps protect the roots.
  • Move potted plants indoors or into a garage or shed during frost warnings to shield them from freezing temperatures.
