Trying out a new Australian Christmas tree holder
Called the tree mate.
Had it in the sun for 3 months to age it … no sign of fade.
Installation no hazzle , nuts and bolts available at hardware store
With a 3.5 m tree it holds 6.5 litre of water
Interesting that the texture on the bottom grips the carpet stopping sliding

Cleaned up last years planting site, there’s about 35 trees left over that I will grow on for the commercial business, you can see the rip lines that the dozer has placed , it loosen the ground and lets the rain in. We plant in the rip lines approx June each year
