A.M. Leonard to sell Tree Hugger's staking system

The product can reduce the time and manpower it takes to stake a tree.


A.M. Leonard, a national horticultural and tool supply company since 1885, is now marketing and selling Tree Hugger's patented Tree Brace tree-staking system.

“At first, I was a bit apprehensive about bringing in just another tree-staking system. But then, after personally trying out Tree Hugger, I immediately recognized the benefits this new system brings. In a nutshell, it is a problem solver and is extremely easy to stake," said Brian Stephens, who spearheads research & development of tree bracing products for A.M. Leonard, 

Trees can now be totally supported by this molded system that can be re-used indefinitely. “Generally speaking,” said Lloyd Gerber, president of this new company, “staking of a tree can take anywhere from 12 to 20 minutes… and sometimes, two installers are needed. Our new Tree Brace system installs in as little as five minutes… and, generally requires only one installer.”

Engineered to eliminate improper angles, Tree Brace offers optimal tree stability. This reusable staking system is manufactured with molded polypropylene, custom formulated to endure harsh weather conditions for decades. No specialized tools or related equipment are needed for the staking of each tree. For more specifics and videos of the product in use, visit the company’s website.
