About this episode
You fall-planted the Cool Flowers hardy in your zone, but what additional steps can you take to protect your plants and make sure they overwinter successfully? Join Lisa and Layne as they address some of the most frequently asked questions about winter protection and row covers. They discuss the benefits of using row covers, how to properly secure the covers so they stay put, temperature and weather conditions that warrant row covers being put up or taken down, row cover alternatives, and more. Listen to the podcast and learn the ins and outs of overwintering your Cool Flowers with (or without) row covers! The video version of Lisa and Layne’s conversation featuring a slideshow of the questions discussed will be posted to The Gardener’s Workshop’s YouTube channel, where all “Seed Talk” episodes are organized into a playlist .
