2 PACK Plant Covers 120x180cm frost protection for plants

This plant fleece cover set provides a practical solution for protecting outdoor plants through cold spells, combining breathable fabric with easy access and fastening. The two 120 x 180 cm covers are made from 80 gsm polypropylene non-woven fabric and help reduce frost damage while still allowing light and moisture to reach seedlings, shrubs and potted fruit trees.

Key Points

These covers allow around 30% to 50% light transmission, which helps plants continue photosynthesising while being sheltered from frost and wind. The material is lightweight yet durable, designed for repeated seasonal use according to the manufacturer. Each bag includes a zip and a drawstring closure so you can check growth quickly and secure the cover in windy conditions. Use them over individual plants, small trees or containers to protect against frost down to about -6°C, snow and general harsh weather.

Technical Specifications

• Name: 2 PACK Plant Covers for Winter 120x180cm, 80gsm
• Material: 80 gsm polypropylene non-woven fabric
• Dimensions: 120 x 180 cm
• Light transmission: 30%–50%
• Frost protection: down to approximately -6°C

Usage Recommendations

Place the fleece loosely over the plant so leaves are not crushed and the material can trap a thin layer of air for insulation. Fasten the drawstring at the base to reduce cold draughts and use the zip to open a viewing panel when watering or checking for pests. For potted plants, ensure the cover reaches the pot edge so the root zone benefits from extra protection. In periods of prolonged frost, check moisture levels more often because the cover will reduce evaporation but not eliminate the need for occasional watering.

Advantages

The covers are reusable and can be rinsed and dried in the sun for storage between seasons, which makes them a cost-effective option for gardeners who prefer durable solutions. The breathable fabric helps prevent condensation and mould by allowing moisture to escape, while still defending against birds and excessive sunlight on bright winter days. The combination of zip and drawstring adds convenience for maintenance and stability in exposed areas. For those monitoring a small orchard or a group of potted specimens, these covers give focused protection without the bulk of rigid structures.

Note that protection is dependent on how the cover is fitted and local conditions, and temperatures below the indicated -6°C may require additional measures. Also consider that very large specimens will need different sizing or multiple covers to be fully protected.
