I get long 1" tomato stakes. Drive 3 or 4 around the tree and staple visqueen like a tent all around. Put a light bulb in each.

This should work. But I think you have to be careful that the plastic does not touch the leaves of your plants. Also, check during day when it gets above freezing to remove the cover so as not to cook the plants. You can search for "frost cloth" as another option but still using the stakes method.
