Buy a roll of 4' high chicken wire at a home improvement center. Cut the wire long enough to encircle each bush like a hoop and fill in with fallen leaves or shredded news papers.





There are also a manufactured product they call "rose cones" which basically is recycled paper compressed into a dome like looking thing that covers each plant. They would be available at nursery's.
Reply:Wrap them in burlap or any other material you can find to shield them from the wind.
Reply:Use your body as a shield woman, and hurry!
