We bring out blankets from the attic/ storage to stay warm and often neglect winterizing outdoor plants. Bring container plants inside. Wrap flowering shrubs with burlap or build an "A" frame to ptotect the leaves. Spread a layer or 2 of mulch at the base of the plants to help insulate, control water and temperature. Stake around your shrubs & other plants, that cant withstand severly cold weather, winds or frost, with burlap or landscape fabric.
