Features
We recommend our customers to purchase a size that will cover the whole tree all around and hang around 1 - 2 feet from the ground.
Fold them up to limit the space usage. Keep them in a dry , cool place free of bugs. A closet or shed would be ideal.
The Anti-Frost Blanket is meant for tropical fruit trees such as mangos, sapotes, annonas, Longans, etc. Stone fruits and Pome fruits do not need these as they need the cold to fruit.
