FLATBACK PAD is strongly recommended for use when supporting trees with flat horizontal bar between two stakes.

For larger trees where a BIG BLOCK may be more suitable we suggestthat the slots are not used. Instead, having nailed the block to thecross-bar to create a cushion, two pieces of belt should be tacked

diagonally across the front of the tree – each length being nailed tothe back of the bar.

This larger version of the Toms Standard Pad takes 37.5mm widebelt and is suitable for larger trees and/or stakes. Many peopleprefer to use this pad for standard trees as the greater widthallows it to be left in place a lot longer before adjustment.

The number of repeat orders for this padhave proved its worth. The combination ofBig Block and 50mm wide Special ReinforcedBelt produce a really effective tie for largertrees.

Ref L3 — per 100 £220.00

More and more frequently two or more stakes are used tosupport trees, with the stakes outside the root-ball. Whilstsome people simply take strapping from each stake, roundthe tree and back to stake, thus “pulling the tree” in differentdirections, we offer sleeves to act as a “buffer” between treeand stakes. This system provides much greater stability andgives a very smart appearance.

The base of trees and shrubs are very vulnerable to damage, mostoften caused by those who are charged with looking after them!Water is brought to the upper part of the plant via the bark, so ifthis is damaged, the flow of nutrients and water is compromosed.Secondly, when trees or shrubs getdamaged in this way, infection or mouldcan enter the plant and it lead to itspremature demise. It is very important,therefore, to protect the base of trees andshrubs from Strimmer or Mower damage,and also to have an environment freefromgrass and weeds, which will sapnutrients to themselves and away from thetree or shrub.
