Cover what you can, including blueberries, hydrangeas that are just leafing out & bring in tender, potted plants. Fruit trees- best you can do is make sure they’re watered prior.

A note about covering shrubs- ensure your cover goes all the way to the ground. #GreenandGrowing🌱 https://t.co/JJpKLrzdS6
