Default Re: Hurricane Ian

This sounds brutal but if you are sure you are going to take a direct hit you might try folding the leaves down on your plants so they don’t catch the wind and then tie them down with a string like a sail to a mast. The leaves should still function and the plant won’t snap. If you don’t do anything the biggest risk is a snapped pstem. Toppled plants can be stood back up and shredded leaves although impaired still function. Good luck!
