PETITTI | Winter Cold Protection for Hardy Outdoor Plants in Pots

Never got a chance to plant those new perennials, trees, and shrubs from the garden center during the outdoor growing season? And they’re still stuck living in their original plastic growing containers? No worries! If the plants are cold hardy to our Northeast Ohio plant hardiness zones 6b, 6a, and 5b, you have a few options for providing protection from our harsh, cold, winter weather. Watch as Noelle (etc etc etc) explains three methods for protection – indoor cold storage, side-of-house sheltering, and pot sinking. Following these methods, you can easily protect your plants – and your investment in them – by successfully overwintering them, and they’ll be ready for official planting next spring!
