Story: Protecting Plants from Sun Damage
Episode: 9
Presenter: Bonnie-Marie Hibbs
Air Date: 17 October 2026

Bonnie meets PlantBrolly creator Cherie Cork to explore how this adjustable shade cover helps protect delicate plants from harsh sunlight and changing weather conditions, supporting healthier growth and flowering.

• Shade-loving plants such as ferns, begonias and hydrangeas thrive with the right balance of light and protection from harsh afternoon sun.
• Strong sunlight and fluctuating temperatures can cause leaf scorch and wilting, particularly in containers where soil heats up and dries out quickly.
• PlantBrolly sits over individual plants or containers, using 70% UV-shade cloth to soften direct sunlight while allowing light and airflow through.
• Its adjustable design lets gardeners position the cover to suit changing conditions, from protecting daphne from afternoon sun to sheltering delicate foliage during frosty weather.
• PlantBrolly offers a practical solution for smaller gardens and container plants where moving pots or installing larger shade structures isn’t always possible.
• With better protection from harsh conditions, shade-loving plants can maintain healthier foliage, stronger growth and more consistent flowering.
