Spring 2013 Japanese Maple Protection

Recommended Posts

Getting anxious about how to protect my tree after last year's frost damage. Any ideas other than burlap covering to protect from possible frost damage again?

I suppose it would depend on the size of the tree and exactly how you protect it.  I have a small maple only about 3-1/2 feet tall.  I found a great cover at a local box hardware, etc. store.  It pops open like a small tent to cover your plant and then has pegs that fit through loops to anchor it in the ground.  I did have someone tell me that landscape fabric is preferable to burlap as it's not so heavy especially if it gets wet.
