Description
A wider sheet for your winter planting
Cover a planting area with 3.2m × 5m of white frost fleece, leaving room for the fabric to follow the shape of the plants and reach your fixing points.
This 50gsm winter-grade sheet is soft, flexible and permeable to light, air and water. Use it whole, or cut smaller covers to fit separate areas.
The pack contains one folded sheet. Fixings and supports are chosen separately to suit your garden.
Winter fleece that lets water through
The non-woven fabric forms a flexible covering while allowing light, air, rain and irrigation water to pass through. It is not a waterproof sheet.
Its UV-protected, 50gsm construction is intended for winter garden use. GSM describes the weight of a square metre of fabric; it does not specify a guaranteed frost temperature.
Choose protection to suit the plants and the exposure of the site, and check them as the weather changes. The sheet has no stated minimum-temperature rating.
Plan the cover from edge to edge
Use both sheet dimensions, including room for plant height and fixing.
5m length
width
Flat sheet dimensions · 16m² of fabric
Measure from one fixing edge, over the planting, to the opposite fixing edge. Repeat in the other direction, allowing spare material to secure the perimeter without stretching the fleece over the plants.
The 3.2m width and 5m length describe the sheet laid flat. A bed with those same dimensions would leave no allowance for plant height or fixing. If you plan to cut several covers, check that every piece fits within the rectangle before making the first cut.
Keep the covering easy to manage
Secure the edges and leave a practical way to inspect the plants.
Unfold and position
Open the sheet out fully and check the direction of its 5m length. Position it loosely over the planting before cutting or fixing it, with enough fabric to reach the edges.
Choose suitable fixings
Hold the spare material at the perimeter with a method suited to your site. Pegs or weights are separate purchases; handle the fleece carefully where it is secured to avoid tearing it.
Lift, check and adjust
Keep an edge accessible for routine care. Check the plants, soil and position of the sheet, adjusting or lifting it when the planting or weather requires.
Planning your fleece cover
Will this cover a 3.2m × 5m bed?
Those are the dimensions of the fabric laid flat. Passing over plants and securing the edges uses some of that width and length, so a bed measuring 3.2m × 5m would need a larger sheet to include those allowances. Measure the full route over the plants in both directions before choosing.
Can I divide the sheet into smaller covers?
Yes. The non-woven fleece can be cut into smaller pieces. Plan the pieces within the 3.2m × 5m rectangle first, allowing each cover enough material to drape over the plants and reach its fixing points. One folded sheet is supplied, rather than a pack of separate covers.
Do I need to remove it when watering?
Water can pass through the fabric, including rain and irrigation. Continue checking the moisture of the soil and the condition of the plants rather than assuming the cover provides all the care they need. Keep an edge accessible so the fleece can be lifted when necessary.
Does 50gsm indicate a frost temperature?
No. It is the material weight per square metre. This sheet is a winter-grade fleece with no stated minimum-temperature rating. Plant tolerance, weather and the exposure of the planting area determine what protection is needed; do not treat its GSM as a temperature guarantee.
