Plastic-free BioFleece® works in the same way as regular fleece, protecting plants from cold and frost in the chilly months. The only difference is that it’s made from plants, not petroleum. A brilliant alternative if you want to leave plastic behind and embrace more sustainable materials in your garden.

The 30gsm fleece creates an insulating pocket of air around your plants, keeping them snug in temperatures as low as -6°C. You can cut it to the size and shape you need with scissors, and it’s nice and light so it can be laid directly over plants or supported on hoops and frame supports.

The fleece will last you at least two seasons and is 100% biodegradable so you can throw it on the compost heap to feed your plants at the end of its useful life.

How to use:

Suitable for any plants at any time of year, though frost protection is mostly needed from October to April. Especially useful for tender flowers and shrubs as well as early season vegetables. Either lay the fleece directly over plants or over hoops or another supporting structure. Secure the edges to the ground with pegs or stones. Remove the netting to water and feed. If using on fruits and vegetables which require pollination, remove the fleece during the day whilst in flower to allow bees to visit.
