Key Specs
Just because you’re on a budget doesn’t mean you have to miss out on the benefits of dedicated plant covers. This pair of low-cost covers will protect smaller plants and bushes from frost, wind, and snow, and are much easier to use than old-fashioned burlap and string. At 1.85 ounces per square yard, these covers are thicker than most frost covers, making them useful for those looking for maximum protection.
The adjustable drawstrings ensure that you won’t lose the covers in the event of extremely windy conditions, and their tan color allows them to blend in with your yard better than stark white fabric would.
Key Specs
Those living in extremely harsh winter climates might prefer the extra protection that comes from this 12-ounce burlap cover. This hardy material is also useful for creating windscreens—you’ll just need some sturdy stakes to keep it in place.
Unless you’re using it to wrap sturdy bushes and trees, you’ll probably need to build some kind of framing to keep this heavy material from potentially damaging your plants, so keep that in mind when calculating the total cost of your project.
This plant blanket won’t provide the sunlight permeability that thinner fabrics offer, but if your priority is maximum protection against the elements, this is a great choice.
