Outdoor potted plants that can't be brought indoors, like shrubs and evergreens, can be protected from the cold, harsh winter weather by upcycling simple bubble wrap. Wrap the pots with a few layers of old bubble wrap and use shipping tape to secure it in place. The air pockets will help insulate the roots of the plant in the same way a greenhouse would, protecting it from the freezing elements. Come springtime, remove the bubble wrap and your plant should thrive in the warmer months.
