Does anyone have any tips for keeping outside plants warm in the winter?? I live in a tropical humid place but we have a cold front coming this week.  
I’ve thought about throwing a plastic tarp over my plants but I don’t want to flatten any foliage, I’m also not sure if it would stay warm enough. I’ve been putting all my plants indoors but I don’t have enough lighting to keep them happy inside for long periods of time. Any tips and suggestions are welcome!!

Instead of a tarp, out plastic bags over your plants so that it has still has space.

I placed my monstera and a syngonium inside two very large empty planters to shield from high winds and low temps. They are hanging in there. Maybe wrap a blanket around them too. Good luck 🍀
