Proper pruning and protection of shrubs and trees will help them survive the winter months, and will lead to healthy growth come spring.
Step 8: Protect against snow and wind with a tent. Protection against high wind, snow and ice is best achieved with a tent, a wooden structure constructed to form a "V." The wooden frame is covered with burlap that is stapled to the frame and placed over the shrub to protect it against the winter elements. Shield shrubs with a burlap-covered, wooden tent.
