Default frost question

kylie,

with those plants that wher dormant in winter they where covered
conmpletely ie.,. the ginger as there was no top growth left.

but with growing stuff like pumpkins and pawpaw i covered with enough
of a loose layer to create a barrier of warmer air, this with heavily
mulched root runs which kept the root runs warmer all helped.
