How to Protect Azaleas From Frost
- 1). Pound four stakes around the plant, 1 foot away from it and spread equally distant. The stakes should extend higher than the azalea plant.
- 2). Place the cloth over the stakes, adjusting it so that it does not touch the foliage and flowers. The fabric should reach the ground.
- 3). Staple or nail the fabric to the stakes if high winds are also expected.
- 4). Remove the covering if it rains or when the temperatures warm.
