Description
A fleece sheet to fit around your planting
Cover a smaller planting area or prepare several cut pieces with this 1.6m × 5m white horticultural fleece.
The 30gsm winter-spring fabric is a flexible non-woven sheet that passes light, air and water. Unfold it, check the drape over the plants and arrange the edges to suit your garden.
One flat sheet is supplied folded, ready to use whole or cut. Choose fixing materials and any supports separately.
A covering that lets water through
The actual material photograph shows the white non-woven fibres. The fabric passes light, air and water, allowing rain and irrigation to reach planting beneath it.
This is UV-protected winter-spring fleece, rather than a waterproof sheet. Keep checking the plants and growing conditions while they are covered.
The 30gsm figure is the material weight per square metre. No minimum-temperature limit or light-transmission percentage is specified for this sheet.
Allow for the plants and the fixing edges
Measure over the planting to the points where you will hold the edges.
5m length
width
Flat dimensions · 8m² of fabric
The sheet is 1.6m across and 5m along when flat. Draping over plants uses material in both directions, and spare fabric is needed to secure the perimeter. The 8m² figure describes the fabric itself, rather than the bed area it will cover.
If you want several smaller covers, lay out their measurements within the full rectangle before cutting. Each piece needs its own allowance for draping over plants and holding the edges, so dividing the flat area alone will not tell you how many covers will fit.
Unfold, position and leave access
Lay out the whole sheet before deciding where to cut or fasten it.
Check the layout
Unfold the sheet beside the planting and check which way the 5m length should run. Position it loosely, with enough fabric reaching the fixing points on both sides and at the ends.
Hold the perimeter
Choose anchors or weights suited to your ground and conditions. Handle the fleece gently around the fixing points and avoid pulling it tight across plants. Fixings and supports are not included.
Keep an edge accessible
Leave a practical way to lift the cover for inspection and routine care. Check its position as weather and plants change, adjusting the drape or removing the covering when appropriate.
Questions about the 1.6m × 5m fleece
Will it cover a bed that is 1.6m wide?
The sheet is 1.6m wide when flat. Plant height, a loose drape and spare fixing edges all use part of that width, so a planted bed needs more fabric than its ground width alone. Measure the complete route over the plants between the intended fixing points before choosing.
Is this a roll or a fitted jacket?
It is one flat 1.6m × 5m sheet, supplied folded. It has no sewn jacket shape, zip or drawstring. Use it as a whole cover or cut it into smaller pieces, planning draping and fixing allowance around each piece before cutting.
Does the 8m² area mean 8m² of bed coverage?
8m² is the flat fabric area, calculated from 1.6m × 5m. The usable bed coverage will be smaller once material rises over the plants and reaches the fixing points. If cutting separate pieces, make the same allowance around each one and check their widths and lengths against the sheet before cutting.
Can I water through it, and what does 30gsm mean?
The non-woven fabric allows water, air and light to pass through, so rain and irrigation can reach the planting. 30gsm means 30 grams of material per square metre; it is not a minimum-temperature rating. Choose protection for your plants and conditions and continue inspecting them while covered.
