Tree collar The smart tree collar is a premium device for securing trees and preventing blow over. It was developed by tree growers who needed to find a way to eliminate wind damage and reduce costs. There are two styles, the tree farm model, used to support a number of plants in a row and the landscape model used to anchor trees planted in the landscape. Tree collar is made of durable polypropylene webbing with four steel D-rings. The collar fastens with both a Velcro and latch that will not slip.
