Fortunately, we can do several things to prevent them from going bad. I will explain to you below how to protect plants from frost.

La anti-frost fabric It is the perfect option to protect not very large plants that have been with us for a short time or that are a little on the edge. It has many qualities: lets the water pass but not the wind, maintains the heat that emanates from the soil and from the plant itself thus achieving that the temperature is up to 4 degrees higher than that of the outside, and it is also very light and easy to place. We can get it in nurseries and garden stores.
Greenhouse

If autumn or winter has fallen on us and we have not thought about making a greenhouse or buying an anti-frost fabric, or if we are more interested in enjoying the plants in another way, we can choose to introduce them at home. Placed in a room with plenty of natural light, away from drafts (both cold and warm), they will surely come to the spring safe and sound.
