I have been covering my plants at night, when there is a frost warning. I leave for work at 6:15am and have been taking off the frost cloths before I leave so the plants can get sun during the day. The weather announcers say that the temperature continues to drop during the early morning hours. Should I be leaving the cloth on? I don't get home until about 5:00pm so if I don't take off the cloth before I leave for work, the plants will have no sun for the day. Do orange jubilee and cape honeysuckle need frost cloths?
