with all theses frosty nights forecast, to protect my outside pot plants

Yes, I know the feeling of panic, fleece is the best but in its absence use old blankets, curtains anything you can rob from your wifes linen sore. Wrap old towels around your pots to save their roots becoming frozen. I have an old 1970's blanket drooped over my white flowered jasmine, outside the kitchen. I know the frosts won't threaten its life, just the early buds, but the things on the blanket may threaten our reputation!!!!!! I'm not telling.
Reply:Can you move the plants to the wall of the house, out of the way of any morning sun.





I was shocked to find it frosty this morning..but most of my plants are in a shady spot right up against the house and not a bit of frost on them...phew.
Reply:Hay is quite good.
Reply:Pretty much any material would protect your pots. If you put some sticks into the pots so the material doesn't crush the plants and creates an air pocket around them. I have used old curtains, old bubble plastic or folded bedsheets for years. That fleece stuff is a bit of a con when you have easier and cheaper stuff at home.
Reply:Maybe some old net curtains or any similar light material.
