Wrap-Around Flower Pots For Trees

Wrap-Around Flower Pots For Trees FARM HOME Miscellaneous 29-5-30 You can add a decorative touch to your yard and protect tree trunks from damage when mowing or trimming with these new "TreePots." Made from cedar, they fit around the base of the tree and have a shelf for growing flowers or other plants. An interior barrier keeps the soil from coming in contact with the tree, giving it room to breathe and leaving room for growth. "I take mine down every other year to clean and treat the cedar. This allows me to clean out around the tree. Some people don't take them apart at all and some do it every winter," says Aaron Simmons, inventor. A small one that fits trees 6 in. in dia. or less sells for $99.99 plus $20 S&H. One for trunks 11 in. in. dia. sells for $139.99 plus $30 S&H. Next spring, he'll introduce Plastic TreePots in different colors and styles.
