Looking like below 25 next week. I have a poor track record, so I am asking.

I am, I lost a lot of new growth last year when I didn't cover. I'm also wrapping up with christmas lights before covering just to be safe.

I am. I use the biggest moving blankets I can find at harbor freight.
ETA: mine are still relatively small.

Just ordered some sort of Zip up cover on Amazon for my cara cara orange. Might put Christmas lights under it.

I have a projected low of 17F for Monday night, so I may add an incandescent light. But last year I used just the blankets on my Meyer lemon when temps got into the 20’s and that was plenty sufficient.

Forecast updated to a low of 11. I may not even bother. This tree is small and has never even flowered.

This is what I’m wondering for other plants overall, like Birds of Paradise and philodendrons - is it even worth it?
Can the growth be saved with any reasonable measures (cover with lights)?
Or is it more about just protecting the root system so it doesn’t die outright?

I found Christmas lights on Amazon that can be delivered quickly.
