When should you care for holly in winter?
Start preparing in late fall, before the first frost hits, to ensure your holly is ready for winter.
How to protect holly in winter?
- Prune carefully: Trim away any dead, damaged, or weak branches before the frost sets in. This helps the plant maintain its shape and health during the colder months.
- Mulching: Add a layer of mulch around the base of the plant to protect the roots from freezing.
- Covering with burlap: If you live in an area with harsh winters, consider wrapping your holly in burlap to protect it from strong winds and extreme temperatures.
