the Ultimate Tri-Cone Tree Guards™

Plant pink quality tree guards.

These distinctive, highly visible, solid-walled pink tree guards are made of UV stabilised fluted coreflute plastic and are designed to protect the seedlings from:

HERBICIDE DRIFT

Most tree species do not grow well in competition with grasses, and are also highly susceptible to contact with herbicide. the Ultimate Tri-Cone Tree Guard™ and weed mat provide ideal protection for young seedlings when herbicide is being used.

WIND PROTECTION

Strong wind can cause severe dehydration of young seedlings and can result in high losses. the Ultimate Tri-Cone Tree Guard™ provides ideal protection from strong winds in this early stage of growth and also creates an environment of increased humidity and sun protection.

PREDATION

Hares, rabbits and wallabies can cause high losses and damage to young seedlings. the Ultimate Tri-Cone Tree Guard™ with its high walls and robust structure provides excellent protection.

ADVERSE CONDITIONS

This tree guard will insulate seedlings from sand blasting and frost, and also elevate humidity and concentrate carbon dioxide levels for improved growth.

Why Pink?

Visible light can be split into a spectrum of colours. Green leaves absorb light from the red fraction to drive photosynthesis. Research has demonstrated that the colour pink reflects and focuses the red fraction, concentrating this photosynthetic energy to enhance plant growth. (Other colours are available on request)
