NuVue Products 30290 Frost Cover, Multiple Sizes Available

Ordered these frost cloth tents for my special, sensitive to cold succulents. Well made, the size was perfect, easy to use, store flat.

The tent itself is easy to open and close for storage after the snow. It's also tall enough to cover the plants that can't go under tarps, such as bottle brush, milkweed, oleander, etc. I have a LOT of butterfly weeds that are tall and spindly and don't take too well to being bent under a tarp, so a tent like this is perfect.The issues: (1) The edges are flimsy and a little high from the ground, so even after securing the tent, the wind would just whip the sides upwards, allowing cold air to get under the tent. I had to wrap the bottom of the tent with sheets to keep the wind out. (2) Because the wind was so strong, nearly blowing over several of the tents, I had to throw towels, sheets, and comforters on top of the tents--the tent, although secure, was just so thin and flimsy it wouldn't stay put without being weighed down. (3) It did NOT save the plants from freeze. The few that were covered by a comforter (only intended to weigh down the tent), survived because they had they added insulation of a thick bed comforter protecting them. Those that had nothing, towels, or just sheets over the tent did not survive.Know before you buy so you can be prepared for how to use this effectively. I will continue using these tents because they're easy to assemble and just the right height, and that's just what I needed--height. But I will ALWAYS cover the tents with a comforter because the tent itself provides ZERO insulation. All plants under tents without an added comforter died. So use the tent to tuck those big and tall plants under cover, and then use a plant tarp or whatever to actually provide the insulation from the frost. Don't expect the tent alone to do it--it won't.

The larger one, was delivered in a box and damaged. I really think that the materials they use oh only stand up to one snow in Michigan. Check with me after my first use in the winter of 2019. It would’ve been nice if the fabric was a little more adorable very skeptic bad it well withstand one winter? I ordered a total of three of these items . Two of them were delivered uncovered and unprotected ! The two that were not put in any packaging were torn and dirty and cut on the top of one like a box cutter had been used! I return two of the three items and I am still waiting to be credited for two of them .

This product protects my Sago Palm. I stack two sizes over each other for the palm when the temps are low. The stakes are brittle and a waste. I use metal Rebar as stakes. The rebar is easy to slip through the loops at each end and force into the ground. Easy to put in and remove.

Easy to cover plants, much better than struggling with fabric. The first five blew away. The little ribbon tabs for staking them to the ground just pulled out of the cover. The second batch I cut 12" vertical slits toward the top of the covers to defeat the wind a little. That worked plus we ran a rope across the top of all. The worst part is that each one came in a separate six inch thick box. Could have all fit in one. That's Amazon's fault and I lodged a complaint re packaging. But when I reordered I got them elsewhere so I would not end up with 9 huge boxes to dispose of. This time they all arrived in one package.

This product could merit a five star rating were it not for the fact that it has yet to be "tested" in the low 20's, which occur infrequently in south Louisiana. Easy to place around a hanging stag horn about 2' in diameter, or a vertical plant on a small wood trellis. Certainly protects against frosty mornings, and as noted awaiting the more rigorous hard freeze of 2-3 duration as the acid test. 28" diameter version too narrow for a large stag horn about one yard across, but there are large diameter basket covers that go over the fern quite easily.

i was pleasantly surprised! for the price, i was expecting something that i might not even be able to use. it was much bigger that i expect too. yes, i could have used a tape measure to get a clearer picture, but where's the fun in that?! the spikes are the thick plastic sort. i used a few more stakes thru the green material as well. it survived gusts of winds upto 30 mph last night. today the prediction is higher, with continued snow, rain and ice, temperatures dropping to the teens. hoping that the buds last on my shrubs. will update if i am disappointed in this product, but so far so good. i was absolutely surprised to see them still on my shrub, i was expected them to blow away.

This works very well. Easy to use, just open & sit over your plants & stake it down. I wish I had of ordered a larger size as this one wasn't wide enough to cover all my plants in one area. My mistake. So far the temps here in South MS haven't gotten below 32 degrees yet, so I can't tell how well it will protect below freezing.Update: We had 1 night where the temps dropped down around 28 degrees, it Did NOT protect very well. Leaves turned brown on plant & fell off, but did not die. As they have revived. If you use this cover, better add something else to cover plants for extra warmth. If temps get below freezing for more than a day, I don't think they will survive using this cover alone.

The title description contains the word multiple. It has me believe that I was ordering a few of them at once for the price. Disappointed. Nice size but not worth the price.

It will be perfect frost cover
