Protecting plants during a cold snap

With a freeze warning now in effect for South Mississippi as we head into the overnight hours, South Mississippi gardeners and growers are preparing their plants for a chilly night.

Locals spent the day getting ahead of the chill by covering plants and moving sensitive plants indoors.

Simple steps like using frost cloths, sheets, or watering plants before temperatures drop can help hold in heat overnight.

Just a few simple steps can make all the difference to protect greenery that is starting to bloom, especially with a later cold snap like this one.
