BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a tree management apparatus, and more particularly, to a tree management apparatus for supporting and managing trees such as trees.

In the case of trees for landscape gardening planted in roadside trees, parks, houses, etc., roads can not be firmly fixed in the ground before their roots are sufficiently grown. Therefore, it tends to be tilted by an external force such as wind or impact, and can be pulled down when it is severe.

Therefore, a tree supporting member capable of supporting the tree to prevent the above-mentioned problems and to allow the tree to grow normally is used.

The common tree branches are made of wood. The tree branches can be supported by standing up and leaning around the trees to support the trees, and connecting the trees by connecting devices.

However, since a large number of trees are required to be cut in the case of using wood as a material of a support, there is a problem that natural greenery is reduced and the natural environment is adversely affected.

In addition, the wood is susceptible to moisture and temperature changes, and thus has problems in that it is cracked or spoiled when used outdoors in rain and seasonal variations. That is, there is a vicious cycle in which a new tree must be cut for the replacement of the durable and durable legs.

In addition, since the tree stands are fixed on the trees, they are disturbed by the growth of the trees, the tree management apparatus is damaged, and the apparatus must be reinstalled in order to cope with the growth of the trees.

In addition, there is a disadvantage in that it is difficult to supply water to the trees at the time of drought. Especially, in the case of the roads and the roads in the city, most of the impervious water such as asphalt, concrete, Since only a small part is exposed, sufficient water can not be supplied to the trees, which adversely affects growth.

In addition, there are many cases where flyers and advertisements are discarded around the trees, which has a disadvantage in appearance.
