Comments about GardenQuilt Cover:
I have had a vegetable garden for a few years now, and every spring we have a couple of nights with frost or temperatures close to it. I became tired of my amateur-solutions, and finally bought the Garden Quilt. It has a good size, is light-weight but fairly thick, so I did not have to worry about my veggies freezing.
Cannot confirm if it holds its promise of protecting into the mid 20s, since it thankfully did not get that cold, but with its thickness it sounds plausible.

Comments about GardenQuilt Cover:
I have used the garden quilts for many years
along with the staples and discs. I use it to
cover my strawberry bed and it does a great job
with winter protection. I sometimes use the
quilt in the spring to cover tender plants when
a frost is forecast. Always does a great job.

I cut off sections and put over my container garden - holding the material down with bungee cords - works great.

Comments about GardenQuilt Cover:
Just pulled it out yesterday. I am using it to cover spring lettuce plants in Earthboxes when frost is predicted. Ability to easily cut to fit my area to protect is a big plus. Not enough use to date to identify problem areas, if any.

Comments about GardenQuilt Cover:
In our area where winters are mostly mild, this is the perfect season extender. I throw it over my tomatoes and peppers and then continue to harvest them through December. I just have to be sure they are clipped to something so the wind doesn't blow them away.

Comments about GardenQuilt Cover:
Planted 2 young avocado trees last spring/fall, and this was the first winter for them in our zone 9b. Using tall wooden supports to drape the fabric over and weighing the bottom edge down with rocks, the trees still went into freeze shock when temps reached 29 degrees and 27 degrees overnight. I finally ran extension cords and 60 watt incandescent lights to each tree under the garden quilt, but I think it's too late for the trees. Wish I had taken the trouble and foresight to provide a heat source to my avocados earlier.
I have 6 dwarf citrus trees that are going through their 2nd winter with garden quilt protection, and I think they're doing fine, if a little stressed from the cold. I think citrus are a little hardier than avocados, though.
It looks like we'll get at least 3 winter seasons use from each frost blanket.

I use this product to cover a 10'x60' Hibiscus hedge and other tropical plants in the winter. It is easy to install and remove and can be folded or rolled for easy storage. I've used the same covers for 5 years.
