Hardy Geraniums Do I need to cover??

My Hardy Geraniums are up and doing well but they are talking about freezing weather tonight. Do I need to cover them? Also does anyone know about weather to cover the Bleeding hearts?
Thank you |

| No, if only a few degrees of frost are expected, it's unlikely your hardy perennials (geraniums, bleeding hearts) will suffer any damage at all. If it goes to -10 or -15 C, then there may be foliage damage on some, but even then it's very unlikely they'd suffer extreme damage; the damaged leaf edges would soon be replaced by new leaves. This kind of thing happens all the time in colder zones - it's nothing to get all excited about. |
