How to Protect Your Plants from Frost and Snow Damage

As an effective and cheap way to cover plants from frost, pine straw can help provide coverage for your plants throughout the entire winter with just one application. Landscape Creative has extensive experience in pine straw application and knows exactly how to use pine straw on yards for frost on both residential and commercial properties. 

Pine straw benefits your plants in numerous ways.

• Plant protection from frost: Pine straw acts as a natural insulator against frost and snow, trapping heat in the soil and protecting the roots and foliage from freezing temperatures. The barrier that this natural mulch creates keeps the ground temperature around plants more stable and consistent.
• Soil moisture retention: The strong winds we experience in Mississippi during the winter can dry out the soil. Pine straw is used to reduce evaporation in the soil, keeping it more moist, while also reducing the effects of wind pulling on your plants.
• Pine straw for erosion reduction: Wind and heavy rains can damage your landscape by washing soil away and leaching out vital nutrients your plants need. Pine straw covers areas in your yard where the soil is vital like flower and garden beds, acting as a soil anchor and barrier to erosion.
• Increase organic matter in soil during winter: As pine straw is a natural and organic matter, over time, it breaks down, enriching the soil where it is applied. This improves the soil’s fertility and helps your plants thrive.
• Pine straw for yard aesthetics: Not only does pine straw protect your plants and soil during the winter, it also adds a lovely polished look to your landscaping. Gone are the days of bedraggled plants and washed out flower beds all winter long. With pine straw, your property will look warm and lovely with earth tones and a tidy appearance.
