"Provider was prompt, professional and friendly. Arrived at the agreed upon time for a free estimate and performed work same-day after we agreed to the price.

However, plastic or vinyl tarps aren’t recommended as a long-term way of protecting your plants from frost because they’ll trap too much moisture inside, which is actually not a good thing for your plants. But in the short term, it’s fine to use even an overturned garbage can to protect a plant from hail.
