Late frosts are an ever-increasing danger for early-flowering fruit trees. The tender, new shoots of fruit trees are particularly at risk during late frosts.

Frost damage to plants and trees can manifest itself in various ways. The south sides of houses and sheltered places, such as behind sheds or hedges, are best suited to protect plants from frost. If frost damage has already occurred, you should remove the dead leaves immediately so that new ones can form. If there are frost cracks in the tree trunk, it is recommended to wrap the trunk with black film.
