bubble wrap my tree

im beginning to wonder if i should wrap the fig tree in bubble wrap to give it some cold protection or is it ok or is it too late for this now ?

 

Never too late. I lost all the blossom from my two plum trees last year due to a heavy very late frost.

 

Never use bubble wrap to protect living tissue. It's impervious so there's no air flow which encourages rot and moulds. It's fine for wrapping round pots to protect roots for frost.

Use fleece or straw in a frame to protect woody plants above ground and a good mulch to protect crowns of herbaceous plants. A bit late now tho. It should all be done in late autumn and not when a cold snap has already started.

 

Two conflicting replies, i have wrapped it loosely but will take it off on Monday if the weather gets less frosty

 

Bubble wrap is ok if you remove it when the weather changes, but figs are hardy.
Is it in a pot, looks like it, as if it is its mostly about protecting the roots rather than the top growth.

I've never had any frost damage on mine, but its planted in the ground.
