I have a small citrus tree that survived last winter thanks to a "Frost Blanket". It helps if you plant some stakes that keep it from touching the leaves. Otherwise, anything touching the barrier will likely be damaged on the coldest nights.
Just make sure you wait out the last frosts. It's pretty common that it'll go from winter weather (low 30s/40s and rainy) to what feels like Spring (70s and sunny) seemingly overnight and you'll be tempted to uncover your plants... but inevitably, a few days later, it'll frost again. Have patience and in March/April-ish you'll start persistent sun and warmth until the winter hits again.
