Had a plant that nearly died from the frost and cold last year, so wish
to
insulate from the cold and its to be kept on a small patio outside, but
adjacent to the house.

The patio consists of paving slabs (placed on a hardcore of broken
bricks
base) about nine inches above the soil level.

I intend wrapping bubble wrap around the plant (a bamboo) and the pot.
