How can I keep my evergreens from getting winter burn?
If you are in an area where your evergreens can get winter burn, I would suggest placing a screen of burlap on the side that you will get the winds from and not wrapping the evergreen itself. It is also very important to make sure your evergreens are well watered in before winter, so this does not place extra stress on them.
