Default protection from frost

Hiya

A more apropirate title would have been canes, but didn't want to attract
the nutters hehehe!

Anyway I was wondering if there is such a product as canes and join
attachments for fitting them together, having trouble explaining what I

mean
here.

What I want to do is stick some canes in a row of pots, and put fleece or
bubble wrap over that, for frost protection of plants in pots outside.

Was
wondering if there was such a thing as a plastic cap to join the sticks
together. Wish I could draw what I mean.


a largish deepish sheet of polystyrene such as used for packing tvs etc cut
to size will do, simply poke the canes through. Any electrical/computer
retailer should have the type of things around. If it breaks just get some
more. Free and readily available.
