We used to always cover outside flowers and sensitive bushes, including a beautiful Robillini Palm bush. Over thr years, the Robillini has grown way too large to cover and we grew weary of climbing into the attic to get the covers and bringing in every pot. So now, we still bring in a few that we don't want to lose but let the rest, mostly just annuals, either make it or not.
