If frost is predicted in your area, you may want to take steps to protect vulnerable plants such as: 1  Houseplants and tropicals. 2  Spring-blooming shrubs and trees such as azalea, rhododendron, and cherry. 3  Citrus trees. 4  Tender bulbs such as dahlia and elephant ear.5  Warm-season vegetables such as tomato, corn, and pepper. Be sure to uncover them in the morning when the temperature rises above freezing. 2  Cover Shrubs and Trees: Larger plants can be covered with fabric, old bed sheets, burlap, or commercial frost cloths (avoid using plastic). 3  For best results, drape the cover over a frame to keep it from touching the foliage.
