Abstract
A plant cover device includes an upper end having a sealed apex and defining a plant-receiving cavity therein, a lower tubular end opposite the upper end, and a medial seam coupling the upper end and the lower tubular end. The upper end includes an upper major mesh surface, and a seam extending along a peripheral edge of the upper major mesh surface. The lower tubular end includes a lower major mesh surface and has a first end and a second end opposite the first end. The first end being is coupled to the medial seam, and the lower tubular end also partially defines the plant-receiving cavity therein. The plant cover device also includes a flexible support carried by the medial seam.
