GUKULIVEL 80x120 cm Garden Fleece 80gsm plant cover 🌿
Description:
This plant cover helps protect outdoor plants from cold snaps and light frost while still allowing air and light to circulate, making it a practical option for gardens and allotments. With a reusable design and simple fastenings, it suits shrubs, hanging baskets and young trees that need extra protection during colder months.
Key Points
Made from thick non-woven fabric, this cover gives a barrier against wind and light frost while letting some moisture through. The fabric is described by the manufacturer as 80 g/m², which balances durability with breathability, and it works for a range of planting situations from pots to small shrubs. 🌿
The set contains two beige horticultural fleece bags with a practical shape and a zipper on the side for easy access, so plants can be tended without removing the whole cover. A drawstring at the base helps retain heat and keeps the cover in place on windy days. For gardeners watching light levels, the fleece transmits about 40 to 60% of sunlight according to the product details. ☀️
Consider that these covers are intended for protection down to around -4 °C as stated by the manufacturer, so they may not be sufficient in areas that experience deeper frosts. They are best used as an additional layer rather than the sole means of protection in severe weather.
Usage Recommendations
Use the covers over individual plants, young trees or hanging baskets when overnight temperatures threaten tender growth. The side zipper allows quick watering and inspection without exposing the whole plant. For gradual acclimatisation of seedlings, open the drawstring slightly during mild days to increase ventilation and reduce overheating.
In spring and summer the same fabric can reduce damage from strong sun and deter some pests, while in autumn and winter it helps limit snow and hail impact on vulnerable foliage. Store the fleece dry between uses to prolong the material life and maintain its protective properties.
