DeWitt Tree Wrap

Give your newly planted trees the defensive covering they need to thrive through their critical establishment phase. This protective wrapping shields young trunks from temperature fluctuations, mechanical injury, and wildlife damage while allowing your tree to breathe naturally. Gardeners and landscapers buy DeWitt Tree Wrap online to safeguard investments in fruit trees, shade trees, and ornamental specimens.

Landscaping Uses

Apply this wrap to recently transplanted trees in spring or fall to guard against environmental stress during their first growing season.

Why Homeowners Love It

• Guards young bark against sunscald, cracking, and temperature stress
• Flexible fabric conforms to natural trunk contours for secure coverage
• Allows air circulation to prevent rot and fungal issues
• Biodegrades gradually as the tree matures, eliminating the need for removal

Planting & Care

Wrap the tree trunk beginning just above the soil line and extending upward about 18 to 24 inches, overlapping each layer slightly. Secure the material with the provided fasteners or biodegradable tape, ensuring a snug but not constricting fit. Check the wrap monthly during the growing season to confirm it remains in place and isn't cutting into the expanding bark. Remove or allow the wrap to degrade naturally once the tree has completed its first full year of growth and bark has thickened sufficiently.
