Some perennial green inhabitants of the backyard need a protective shelter for a successful winter. The winter cold is destructive for them. Flowers and some shrubs are especially sensitive to it.

the Rose
The queen of the garden in the fall urgently needs preparation for winter. In addition to autumn pruning and fertilization, the grower will need to shelter the plant from frost.
Clematis
This decorative culture is not as gentle as a rose, but it cannot winter without shelter.
Before covering the clematis before wintering, the summer resident must process them with Bordeaux liquid with a concentration of 1%. The measure will help prevent the development of diseases during the cold season.
Grapes
Preparation of the vineyard for winter is usually carried out in October. It needs to be cut and covered to protect it from cold and icy wind.
Coniferous crops
An adult tree does not need frost protection, but a young plant that has not reached the age of five cannot do without it. Coniferous "young growth" should be covered until frost.
Blueberry bush
Although this deciduous shrub is capable of overwintering without shelter, it is not worth leaving it without protection from the cold. After a warm winter, it will bear fruit better.
Hydrangea
Without shelter, the thermophilic hydrangea can die in winter. It should be covered to preserve flower buds, even if the plant is a frost-resistant variety.
Chrysanthemum
The chrysanthemum is prepared for wintering by sprinkling the bush with mulch or covering it with protective material. It can also be dug up and kept in the cellar during the cold season.
It is advisable to feed the culture before frost with organic matter like humus.
Rhododendron
Evergreen representatives of this culture need frost protection every year, and other varieties - the first 3 years.
Bulbous
All bulbous inhabitants of the garden must be covered for the winter. Plants planted in the fall require most protection.
Iris
Iris is quite unpretentious and is able to overwinter without the help of a grower. However, some varieties cannot do without shelter for the winter. This is especially true of the bearded flower variety.
Blackberry bush
Blackberries should also be protected from the winter cold in order to enjoy its abundant fruiting next season. The roots of the bush are prone to freezing. They should be insulated with humus (consumption - 1 bucket per 1 bush).
Yucca
Filamentous yucca must be covered before the cold arrives. She is afraid of freezing weather.
Barberry
The box-leaved variety of shrubs must be covered before wintering, since a snowless winter is an ordeal for this culture.
Lavender
The thermophilic lavender needs pruning, fertilizing and shelter for the winter in the fall.
Peony
In order for the peony to grow well, develop and delight the gardener with long flowering, it must be covered for wintering. A newly planted plant especially needs protection.
Plants that are afraid of frost and winter cold should be sheltered on a dry, fine day. Dry materials are used for this purpose.
