I'm selling garden hose in lengths of 18" for tying up trees with wire. Use them to secure limbs or keep growing trees upright while protecting the tree trunk from injury (prevent the wire or rope from rubbing and digging into the bark; prevent trunks from getting friction marks).
$1 each
(or 8 for $5)
I will cut the hose per your order, so if you prefer a custom length, feel free to let me know what you need. Also, the hose is soft and malleable (not stiff and new) so very easy to use.
Do you need garden wire for strapping? I have bright green, vinyl coated, heavy-duty wire in various lengths... some used, but in excellent condition; some new coils. 10 cents/foot.
