Placing empty glass bottles in the garden as a way to trap evil spirits is a Southern tradition. These days, a bottle tree is also a way to remember a special celebration or add sparkling color to a quiet spot in the garden.

Comments about Bottle Tree:
The bottle tree was exactly what I needed to finish my flower garden. It enhances it beautifully!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
The bottles you use, make it very personal...
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Artsy! My husband doesn't like it...too fun for him.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I put in my front yard to add color by my large fountain. I love blue bottles and it will be very attractive. I also bought one for my neighbor and she seems to love just as much. Now I've got to get collection of bottles.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I bought this to add a touch of color to a back perennial garden that is well shaded. I have very little color and thought this would add a needed burst of fun. It was easy to set up and easy to "plant".
I wish some of the branches were arranged more whimsically for added interest. It's a bit "stiff" in design.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Easy to assemble. Good value and quality for the price.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I love the colored bottles reflecting in the sun, and I think it's very unusual. I live in wine country, North East, Pa. and I do believe it will get noticed a lot.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I was very disappointed that my bottle tree didn't survive the winter. We live in a cold, snowy climate and in early spring when I saw that the bottle tree had started to lean a bit (from the thawing and refreezing ground), I moved it back into the vertical position and it snapped off at the ground. Very poor quality metal . . .
Comments about Bottle Tree:
This is a fun addition to my collection of yard art.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I love the bottle tree -- I had read about them in a Southern mystery. It has been fun to collect the various bottles. Use a good variety of colors. My plants in that corner are growing fast so the bottle tree must be warding off the evil spirits. The neighborhood kids love to come and see it. Nice addition to the garden.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I HAD BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS FOR A LONG TIME. IT LOOKS BEAUTIFUL IN THE SUN
Comments about Bottle Tree:
LIKE THIS ONE A LOT..COULD BE STURDIER THOUGH, SWAYS A LITTLE
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I am having so much fun finding just the right bottles to add. I just need 6 more bottles to complete it, but it still looks very cool. I have it in my shade garden which adds a little bling and fun.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
It really captures evil spirits, and brings luck. The day after I put it up. I had two calls for employment, after a full year of job searching.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
This is a fun product that allows you to change the look by changing the bottles. The description should have better explained that the base needs to be well-anchored when you place in a wind-proned area. It's a good way to make use of pretty glass bottles and add a spot of color to the yard without the need to water it!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
one of many bottle trees I own
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I love it and am buying a second. Maybe even a third. It looks so beautiful in my flower garden and when the sun passess through it, it makes a wonderful design on our deck and yard.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
As noted by other reviewers, I enjoyed for a few months even though it swayed in the wind. Today however it snapped and broke off at the base, so even with the great supports in the ground, the rod itself was too flimsy to withstand the wind. So sad.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
My wine bottle tree looks beautiful in my retaining wall garden. It made it through its first Upstate NY winter & looked really neat with ice hanging off the bottles.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Would like it better if the "branches" rotated for better alignment of the bottles.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Such a conversation piece and a wonderful focal point for my flower garden!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
My heart broke when the bottle tree broke...not sturdy at all and completely broke in two pieces in 4 months.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
While I had a little trouble screwing the 2 pieces together tightly, it is up and looks great. Now I have ause for those empty wine bottles! Love it!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Blue bottles show up better than any other color.
A mixed color bottle tree is very cheerful.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I was so glad to find this item. I first spotted a bottle tree on a drive through an historic little neighborhood where a homeowner with a lovely greenthumb had planted one in her frontyard. You could see it from down the street because the sunlight bounced off each bottle so beautifully. I vowed to find a bottle tree and I did! Thank you Gardener's Supply Company! My bottle tree was planted in our backyard where I and all the birds can enjoy it daily. It's been fun filling the branches with colorful bottles, many of them souvenirs...I get a visual and emotional treat everytime I look at it!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I got blue wine bottles from my local home brew shop and filled 3 of these trees. Makes a wonderful impact and requires no watering! For extra safety we bent wire into "hairpins" and secured the bases into my soft soil. Love the look and the easy assembly.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I have one in FL and bought it for my daughter in OH to have a daily reminder of her Mom. It should be a conversation piece there.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Adds color in the winter when nothing is in bloom. And you can change the location easily later in the season.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Using around a pond to add color. Neat colorful recycling addition! Necessary to anchor securely to hold weight of bottles in wind!!! Hubby had to redrill base as bolt did not line up to secure tight enough. Overall good price for a fun piece though!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I have been searching for a bottle tree for some time now, and did order this one. I was really surprised at how sturdy it is. I liked the natural look, and the four pronged stand for placement in the garden. This is a great product and a great price.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I got this for Christmas and my kids and I have been having a great time choosing which bottles and how they will line up. In the bright Florida sun, it's really great to pull up and see the play of the light through the bottles!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I searched a long time for the perfect gift for a very dear friend and master gardener. When she mentioned that she had always wanted to make a bottle tree, I was pleased that I could purchase such a nicely designed, easy to assemble product form you. She has been delighted withthe gift and I have now purchased two more; one for me and one for my sister.
Thanks again!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I can't wait to fill my bottle tree with the beautiful colored bottles that I have collected.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Is as expected. [...]
Comments about Bottle Tree:
for winter it is in a corner in family room, adding color and conversation.
sun coming through adds bright colors on gray days of winter
wish it was just a little bit sturdier branches on it. Will see how it holds up to wind.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
This bottle tree looks so good in my back yard that I just bought a second one. I'm working on a forest.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Have been looking for a bottle tree for years! Haven't been able to find one I like until I saw yours in this year's catalog. It's great! Only thing I wish you all sold now were some decorative colored bottles! It looks great!!!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
had a dreary spot in our landscape where nothing thrived until we planted our bottle tree! I don't know what was more fun, collecting the multi-colored bottles or the beautiful aura it produces when the sun sparkles it! It made a huge difference in that area, turning our frowns into smiles!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
reasonably priced way to display bottles in the garden
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I used smaller bottles than those shown and I love the way it looks when the sun shines through the bottles.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
wife has shown it to 2 friends. Plans to add fruit and bird food to the bottles she puts on it.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
This was a gift for my sister and she loves it. She had it sitting up in her living room until she could get outside to put in her yard.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Makes the yard Very colorful.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Great conversation piece. Fun addition to my garden. Ever changing possibilities.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I have just set it yp & began collecting bottles for it. It seems sturdy, I guess I'll know for sure when I have it filled & we get a strong wind!
It's already adding a ray of color to the dreary winter.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
The Bottle Tree is adorable and will look fantastic outside, I wish it came with the colorful bottles or a suggestion as to where to buy them, me I put paint in the clear bottles and it worked just fine. I would love to see a flower, closer to the ground and 2 times as many bottle holders, just a suggestion for the person who makes the tree.
Thank you, Janay Jackson
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Great product [...]
Comments about Bottle Tree:
This is a great gift idea. Once adorned, the bottle tree serves as a visual reminder of special occasions where a bottle of wine had some significant meaning. The more colors or bottle designs, the neater the tree looks.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
We had tried a bottle tree with a tree branch but that didn't work too well. "Santa" brought us this bottle tree. We just put it outside yesterday and it's perfect! Easy to assemble and it looks great! Just don't put real big bottles on it.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I gave bottle trees to 6 family members for Christmas. Everyone LOVES them! It is a unique gift that requires no care.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I love the bottle tree. It's a nice addition to any flower or rock
garden.

Comments about Bottle Tree:
Right after I put up my bottle tree we had a windy rain storm and my tree did not budge and not one glass bottle broke or fell. It looks great in my yard among my various grasses. It was also fun looking in all kinds of places for colored bottles.

Comments about Bottle Tree:
I put this bottle tree in my flower bed, close to the lanai cage, for protection. Because the screw that holds the bottom assembly was too short, and too weak, the first high wind blew the bottle tree over, breaking some of the bottles. The look of the tree is excellent, but the structure needs to be stronger. I wanted this tree for a long time, and am very disappointed in it.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
THE BOTTLE TREE brightens the garden in the winter.I love how the sunlight sparkles off the glass. It's just fun and adds whimsy to my garden.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
My husband said the stand was a piece of junk and that the bottles were going to bang together and break in the wind. The stand went together easily. We secured it to a fence post with fishing line. It looks great with the blue bottles and the wind has not caused any problem. I don't think it would work as well if not secured to something. I have already ordered 2 more.

Comments about Bottle Tree:
People just love my bottle trees -- I did a Christmas tree by using bright green and gold bottles. I added red and gold ribbons to the bottom of the bottles. Very Festive!
Christmas Bottle Tree
Comments about Bottle Tree:
The bottle tree has been a colorful, eye-catching addition to my back yard. I have been collecting colored bottles for years, but refused to pay the high price most retailers wanted for a tree to dipslay them on. Your price was great, and I am very pleased with the product. I will most likely order another one before summer!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
The bottle tree along with my collection of blue bottles is so pleasing to look at through our kitchen windows as we eat breakfast in the morning. It brings a touch of festivity to the garden as the winter days set in.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I was really looking foreward to this item but found it not hardy enough to withstand a high wind. [...]
Comments about Bottle Tree:
My friend was going to wait until Spring to use it, but decided to put it up this winter and enjoy looking at it with the colored wine bottles during grey, wintry weather!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Waiting for the winter winds to be gone before adding bottles but looks great without them.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Very easy set up and sems very stable.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I had been looking for a bottle tree and this was a perfect size and price for me. Hopefully it will keep all evil spirits out of my garden!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
My bottle tree adds a bright splash of color to my back yard. Everyone loves it, and several people have offered to save bottles for my collection. I'll never grow tired of this gift - one of the few I have bought for myself!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I had to pound a pipe into the ground to attach with zip ties to make it stand up. Not heavy enough metal to support wine bottles.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Great highlight for a small garden.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I just read On Folly Beach which talks a lot about bottle trees-I just had to have one! I love how it looks and seems sturdy...put heavy bottles on the bottom.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
i placed the "bottle tree" in my garden during the summer. for Christmas i moved it to a large pot outside my deck window and decorated it for the Holydays. place suet or bird feeders on the branches for the feathers friends during the cold winter. i haven't found anything bad about it.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
We love our new bottle tree -- it adds just the right touch to our yard! Easy to assemble, and we have had such fun finding the right bottles. I plan to buy another one soon.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Delightful, especially when the sun is behind it; we found it quite stable when loaded with bottles, just standing on upper deck outside LR window. Must say the price was right: almost exactly a tenth of what a local metalworker charges.
[1 of 2 customers found this review helpful]
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I loved mine but was not strong enough. It broke at the bottom with the weight of the bottles. Rather expensive for 6 months!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
It's nice, but thought it was expensive, although I do like it. I need to prop it up as it tends to bend forward with the weight of the bottles I'm using. I hope it lasts for quite a while.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
looks great in may garden
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I am trying to collect all blue bottles for my tree. It sits in the middle of purple, magenta and lavender N.E. Asters and looks beautiful. Unfortunately, one of the arms broke off during assembly. We managed to repair it but it is fragile to work with.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
My tree is so beautiful I had to move it to the front yard and put spot light on it for night time. I have had so many people ask me about it. I am a serious gardener who doesn't want to take life to serious. You will have fun shopping for colorful bottles to fill up your tree. It lets poeple know I have a good sense of humor too. You can change color schemes with the different seasons or holidays.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
When I tell people that I have a bottle tree in my back yard they think that it is something living. I have enjoyed collecting different colored bottles and can always change one out when I find one more coloorful.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I will stuff it with LED lights for an outdoor decoration this winter
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I was very pleased w/ the quality of the bottle tree, a great value too! I look forward to filling it w/ colorful bottles in my backyard.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
This tree is exactly what I wanted. It accommodates all of my beautiful colored bottles, large and small! It's a great backdrop to my hosta bed, adding color and personality.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Looks beautiful in my backyard! Very easy set up and we have had high winds this year and it is still in place.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I 'planted' this in a flower bed in my back yard and
it looks great. (No place for it in my front yard).
I used tall bud vases purchased at a local florist
rather than wine bottles. They are a unique shape so are quite different, which I appreciate. They also came in about 5 different colors.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I wish it was a little bit sturdier...once you put the wine bottles on it leans a bit....but I have been wanting one of these for a while....the wine bottles have left my kitchen window. Thanks
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Beautiful, mine is the only one in the neighborhood.
Collected bottles from flea markets and from my family of all colors. It's so pretty when the sun shines on it. It's a color addition to my perennial garden beside our garage. I can see it from the kitchen window while I do dishes. LOVE IT!!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I gave this to my Mom for her birthday and she was thrilled. She says that it is sturdy and has good feet to hold it in the ground. Her yard gets alot of wind, but when they had a hurricane Earl warning last week, she took all the bottles off temporarily.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Adds interest to the garden without a lot of expense. Although not flimsy, it is not incredibly sturdy...but it was also not very expensive. I am happy with it.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Don't know yet whether it will weather well -- has to go through a winter before I can tell.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
The bottle tree really makes a statement, I like fact that there is tradition behind the bottle tree, and it was fun emptying the bottles to decorate it with!!!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
The bottle tree was easy to assemble. It stands about 6 feet tall with the bottles on it. I like that you can change the bottles for a completely different look. I'm going to change the tree with the four seasons. Great item!!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I had fun adding unique/significant bottles to my tree. Friends and family have all given it rave reviews.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I really had a lot of fun finding very old bottles to hang on the tree. I got family and friends to join in on the fun.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
This product did not disappoint. I have it almost full of green bottles and I love it. It seems sturdy but I just recently installed it so I can't comment on it's durability. I intend to remove the bottles over the winter.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
This was a very inexpensive addition to the "forest" of other bottle trees I have in a section of the garden. It's 4 pronged base makes the tree very stable. A good value.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Bottletree looks fun. Don't have any bottles on it, but am collecting interesting ones for display.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Absolutely gorgeous!First thing you notice when coming up drive. Gets heavy once filled with glass bottles, though, so you may want to add steel stake just to be safe...
Comments about Bottle Tree:
put this in my shade garden to add color and abstract content. I love it.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
It is impossible to screw together. The manufacturer must have no quality control in place. I was excited to find it...until I tried to assemble. I ordered TWO of them. My 30 yr old son also had no luck trying to assemble. Don't waste your money or time!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I had read about the African bottle tree about 6 years ago, doing research I found the trees could be purchased for $100 +. Since this was way off base I cut down a dead tree branch and stuck it in a huge pot. Nice but... This year the tree was beginning to weather and I saw this tree on the Gardener's Supply Company website. Perfect price, great [...] "Tree" is very sturdy, easy to assemble the two pieces and very easy to stick in the ground. I will totally be purchasing from this website from now on.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Was excited when I received it but then very very disappointed when I went to set it up. First I did not receive a nut to attach the base so had to get one and when I did set it up it was leaning started to put bottles on and it fell over. Cannot use will not stay in ground.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
it looks great with some old 7up bottles that I have on it

Comments about Bottle Tree:
I wanted a cute bottle tree like I saw in some friends' yards and thought this would be it....but it is not! It is cheaply made and doesn't even look good in the yard. I am using it only because I [...] don't want to have to pay that to return it. I wouldn't recommend it AT ALL.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I love the bottle tree! It's funky and fun! No one else in my neighborhood has one, making it unique...but that would be true for anyone, it's all in the selection of the bottles! Easy to set up. I'm only worried about super high winds, but so far so good.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Everyone who sees our bottle tree LOVES it. Adults, and kids alike think it is so unusual and funky. The sunshine catches the sparkle of the bottles. The bottles twinkle as they rest upon the spokes. Our bottle tree is by a large spruce tree which makes for an excellent contrast between the sleek bottles shapes and the looming wooly tree.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
The bottle tree was easy to assemble and seems very sturdy & well made. I did anchor the base with 2 big rocks in case of a very windy day. I used mostly cobalt blue bottles with a few purple ones for accent. I've received a lot of compliments. It's beautiful!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I covered it in beads and then hung hand blown glass balls from it - it worked out perfectly!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
We've even had fun trying new types of wine so we can add the bottles to our bottle tree. It is great fun!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Because it was moderately priced as these bottle trees go, I was not expecting the moon. It is a simple shape. It has weathered a couple storms and seems pretty sturdy. It is not yet full as I am still collecting bottles.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Just a good laugh, and why not? It is going to take a while to fill this thing up with bottles, but it will be fun! Assembles in minutes.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
saw something like it when I was in Nashville Indiana and decided we needed it to add to our back yard and put our wine bottles from different wineries on it. I have also decorated a few with paint on the inside and glueing different buttons and sequins on the outside of the bottles.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
The bottle tree has been a fun addition to my yard. Friends and family are having fun helping me find colorful bottles for it. And, it's a comfort to know evil spirits are captured inside those bottles.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I love cobalt glass and have only that on mine for a fun yard art piece in my garden.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I've always wanted a bottle tree
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I couldn't be happier with my bottle tree. Easy to put together, & holds up to our windy Colorado weather. Reasonably priced.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
[...] Looks great.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I put this in a flower bed in my backyard. I have wanted a bottletree since I saw the one at Brookgreen gardens. This one is simple but nice.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Adds color and reflected light to the landscape.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
The sculpture was easy to assemble and is sturdy enough to hold 16 bottles of various sizes. I did anchor the base with 2 rocks because it is quite windy on the prairie. I used cobalt blue bottles with a couple of purple for accent. I've gotten several compliments.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
This Item was exactly what I expected. It is well built, sturdy and has stayed put without tipping and looks nice in my garden.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Looks good
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Unique conversation piece. It is sturdy and stands strong and was easy to assemble. I would of like it to have a bit more sway in the wind as I would of liked to hear the glass tinkle but it is strong and sturdy. Now drinking a wider range to acquire the bottles...:))
Comments about Bottle Tree:
The bottle tree had added some additional color to our garden and will be a delight against the winter snow. Wonderful conversation piece and has opened up a challenge in locating a variety of ornate and colored bottles (we put a fish shaped bottle on top). The best feature is we can move it to various locations with ease. We'll be buying a second one shortly for an upcoming party to hold the empties :)
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I looked at and thought about this product from your catalog for several months before I finally broke down and bought it. I am sooo glad I did because I think it looks pretty cool in the yard. I am also having fun,searching for different, unique bottles to put in the yard. This could be a great summer project for kids and adults. Kinda like a treasure hunt during the summer. Now I am going to yard sales and consignmaent shops,with the hopes of finding that perfect bottle. It's been fun.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
A great conversation piece. I love that I could put colored glass bottles and have the Florida sun
shine on it!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Great looking addition to the yard. Conversation piece. Easy to set up. [...] priced very well when compared to others.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Just what we wanted.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I read a book that had a bottle tree maker in it and ordered another very cheap one from another company and it totally feel apart. So I am fighting with them to get my money back. Then I found this one and it is exactly what I am looking for...Thank you for having quality stuff.
Now I finally have my book come true....

Comments about Bottle Tree:
A little bit of whimsy, each tree having a personality of its' own!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Neighbors want it; no problem with the resent winds here in SE MI. Only problem getting all the bottles needed,empty
Comments about Bottle Tree:
This is a great fun product. Everyone asks me where I got it. Two points: The photo makes it look way taller than it actualy is. And, as far as I can tell, there are no red wine bottles to be had, anywhere. So, where did the one in the photo come from?
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I used my bottle tree as a divider between the lilacs that had already bloomed and my black eyed susans, that are yet to bloom, for color. Since I own my own metal fab shop, I added leaves to the bottle tree.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Very thin design to hold glass bottles. Even when securely staked in the garden, it leans...even without wind pushing it, which does cause it to lean even more.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
colorful and pleasant addition to vegetable garden.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
It set up easy and looks great...still standing even after heat, wind, rain!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
This bottle tree is sturdy and does not tip when the wind blows.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
An attractive addition to my garden.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
in my flower bed to give the space some height.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I have wanted a bottle tree for some time. This product was on a delay for about 6-8 weeks. When the tree arrived I was happy to receive it and the quest for colored bottles began. Locating a variety of colored bottles is a bit challenging. One must distribute the bottles properly to balance the tree. This can be a challange.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
We weren't sure about this when we opened it, because it was a bit crooked, and the photo seemed very straight. However, we stuck it in our garden, among some perennials which are about 2 ft high to cover the base, covered it with old cobalt blue Z*** cooler bottles, and it looks like a modern, giant delphinium! Just beautiful.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Tee looks beautiful,Iam having trouble finding the smaller pretty bottles. I wish they would sell them all. Good wowrk
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I love the way it looks but there is a definite design flaw. It snapped at the base with the combination of the weight of the bottles and a wind blowing. My brother welded it back together and it snapped again. Now I just have it stuck in the ground without the base. So sad...
Comments about Bottle Tree:
This bottle tree would be more secure if it had pointed "feet" to go into the ground easier.
If the picture didn't show up,let me know and I'll try it again.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Looks great, has great design, but needs to be out of a more sturdy construction material.

Purchased to create the blue bottle tree of the Carolina low country folk art
Comments about Bottle Tree:
This was the perfect addition to my garden. I strung Christmas lights on it for added glitz!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Love it!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I LOVE my bottle tree....It's all handmade and it shows!!! It's a little bent in a couple places and not absolutely straight but that is what gives it it's character..Very charmimg!!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I like garden accessories and this is an unusual item. I collect blue bottles and they will show up in my garden thanks to the bottle tree.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
a great way to fill an area of the garden where nothing will grow!

Comments about Bottle Tree:
i was very disappointed when i received my bottle tree in the mail. when i opened it up i expected the full multi-branched tree i saw in the catalog.
when i opened mine up it had 2 branches.
its very disappointing to expect one thing and to receive an entirely different thing.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Might be helpful to sell the bottles as well.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
The bottle tree is designed for ornamental use only. We put in the back yard in a shade garden. It was very easy to put together. But remember to pull on the metal poles at the bottom because they will bend.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Love the tree, it looks great. The first part of the tree didn't fit thightly on the base and wobbled. I used a rubber washer to solve that problem.

I like the tradition of bottle trees.

Comments about Bottle Tree:
Poor base design- broke as while trying to put in very soft ground. Not believing the 'sturdy steel' claim. Unable to use and too expensive to ship back. Will check with welder.

This is a very attractive bottle tree and looks beautiful in the garden.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Adds a great deal to my small Condo porch garden
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I love them! I have 4 in my garden. I like the way the sun reflects off the bottles and the colors shine.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Used this product in my garden, shows up great, when using blue wine bottles... great color of the metal, looks old like a old tree.
Only bad thing is I don't have enough bottles to fill the whole tree, just yet.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Love the product. Sturdy but wondering if the metal arms will have a problem later if it gets continued bending in the future. NO PROBLEM what-so-ever now... I do not plan on moving bottles. Great to look at and would like to purchase more for friends!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
shows off my collection of blue bottles
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Looks great in the shade garden. Now we need to find more good wine in a nice blue bottle.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
This is the most unique yard artwork I have found yet. It makes me smile when I go out in my backyard and see it!! Wish I had room to put another one! Everyone loves it! When my flowers die I will still have my beautiful bottle tree to brighten my yard :)

Comments about Bottle Tree:
I had seen bottle trees in movies and in Southern Living magazine and wanted one. Was happy to find that you offered them. Since setting mine up in the border, I have begun to notice others so I feel that it is gaining in popularity. It is a good way to recycle attractive glass bottles.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
My new bottle tree will fit right in with the other garden art I have.
It will be a definite conversation piece. I've been wanting one for
a long time.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I had saved bottles for a few months while waiting for delivery. Unfortunately, they were to big. Tree needs 16 oz. or less bottles. Also having trouble finding a variety of colors.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
A very attractive addition at a good price.

Comments about Bottle Tree:
I put this in the middle of my 3 tierd herb garden and scattered wine corks around it that I have collected over years. I just love this piece. I origanlly saw this on HGTV years ago in a garden and fell in love with it. I was thrilled when I found it at gardners supply.

Comments about Bottle Tree:
I realized after I set it up you don't have to use wine bottles, you can use all shapes and sizes for this display to make it your own unique way!

A must have if you live in the south...great for keeping the haints at bay! BOO!

Comments about Bottle Tree:
I saved my dark blue bottles from my past bottle tree which was an old fence post. This is much prettier than the post!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
This product can add a little color to your garden, depending on the color of the bottles you use. I get alot of comments from friends. They enjoy the uniqueness of the bottle tree.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Nice way to add color and glass to my garden
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I made an Internet error and ordered 2 trees at the same time. I am using both! The more color in the bottle the more dynamic the tree. The morning sun shining through the glass is wonderful and in the evening with a solar spotlight is just as eye popping.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Love the bottle tree! It is tall and slender and holds 16 bottles. I originally filled it with bottles I have been saving, which are mostly green and yellow. Now, I have started collecting blue bottles and I am slowing replacing the bottles on the tree now with the blue bottles. It will be fun and stand out in the garden much more once the blue bottles fill it up!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
We installed it in our front yard garden area where it stands out nicely. I plan to install LED Christmas lights in the bottles during the Christmas season. We love it and have received many favorable comments from neighbors.

I was very pleased with the quality of this item. Looks like it will last and is an excellent addition to my fishpond area.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Although my husband thinks my bottle tree is gaudy, I love it! We love to drink wine so have lots of decorations to change on the tree. We have a lovely city garden and the bottle tree is a fun addition and a great conversation piece.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
The supports for the bottles seem a tad thin but so far it's holding up through the winds and rain.
Overall a nice addition to our yard.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I really like this, but wish it were made in the USA. The pieces are standards found in most Farm implement supply shops.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I purchased two of these for my large backyard-one is by my raised garden beds and one by the patio. I love these-they are beautiful with multi-colored bottles!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Really adds nice height to an area I have little planted in right now. And with the blue and clear bottles I put on it, there is great color too.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I get a kick out of it every time I look at it.
Get one it will make you feel good.

We are having fun trying different types of wine but are reserving certain branches for bottles marking special occasions. The top is a champagne split I had for my birthday.

Comments about Bottle Tree:
The colored bottles I used are even more vivid when the sunlight hits them. Very cool! But 17 standard size wine bottles are a bit heavy for this tree - it sways a little if the wind is strong. It seems stable, though. I placed 3 large stones on the base - I don't know if that actually helped, but the whole thing looks great!

When I tried to screw the base to the bottle tree, it sheered off. I now have several pieces of useless metal

Comments about Bottle Tree:
Spikes could be longer. The bottles click together in the wind. I have all cobalt blue bottles, jars and vases on it. It looks great with the other blue accents in my flower garden.

Comments about Bottle Tree:
This bottle tree is so wimsical, and such a colorful addition to my backyard garden. It's fun to try and find different colored bottles, and finding different shaped bottles also (clear bottle shaped as a fish). We ordered one for our main residence, and one for our beach house. I have never seen this in any other catalog. Did I absolutely NEED this, No, but I love it and have received many comments .

Comments about Bottle Tree:
We had fun drinking the wine and then my God Daughter poured old fingernail polish into the clean bottles. With a little help from some glitter have some real beauties. Can't wait to fill it up for display.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I have been looking so a simple bottle garden frame for a while and thought I might have to make my own..so glad to find this simply designed frame. Easy to install and set up. Great product!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I really like this bottle tree, I had seen something like these in the south and just loved the idea. Tried to make something on my own but didn't work very well. This "tree" is really nice, fairly sturdy and looks so nice with the bottles I have on it. I have it in a flower garden and I love the look.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
The bottle tree looks great as a garden sculpture.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
This peice was right up my alley. It is colorful, uses materials that I love(glass) and was very reasonably priced. It is well made but you might want to warn potential buyers that it is very rustic looking in case they are looking for something a bit more "new" looking. But it was exactly what I was looking for
Comments about Bottle Tree:
My side yard garden has sculptures in it and when I saw this, I was excited to add it to my collection. I have always wondered how to use the beautiful colored bottles we all have. This is perfect and very eye-catching. Thank you!
Comments about Bottle Tree:
When I get enough bottles to fill it, It will look really cool! I'm hoping it will catch all the bad spirits in my yard! lol
Comments about Bottle Tree:
A great conversation piece for your yard! Start saving those bottles!

Comments about Bottle Tree:
Great way to show off my blue and colored wine bottles; unusual.
Iron rods did not fit properly together, and it was very hard to assemble.
Did not return, as was very heavy, and didnt want to re wrap it for sending.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Evil spirits are no match for this very unique piece of art. Plus, you get to enjoy some spirits along the way (aka. great excuse to drink some wine).
Comments about Bottle Tree:
Sturdy construction and easy to set up. It looks good and there are only 7 bottles on at present. Just as I had hope.
Comments about Bottle Tree:
I had a great collection of bottles, but no tree to hang them on where I could see them. This was the perfect answer, and looks really colorful in the garden

Comments about Bottle Tree:
I love the southern folklore of catching the evil spirits, so last summer I bought the cheapest bottle tree I could find, really it was the only one I could find. It couldn't even hold cans, let alone bottles. If the wind blew it fell over and if you put more than 2 bottles on it, it bent. When I saw this, I immediately ordered. It is simple and incredibly sturdy. Mine is completely full of bottles, even mag size. It doesn't move. I am so pleased with this product. I highly recommend it if you've got some spirits to catch.

Need to drink product in colorful bottles:]

Comments about Bottle Tree:
I placed the Bottle Tree in my backyard so I can see it when walking into the yard through our garden gate, and also I can view it through my Southern exposure sunroom window! I'm enjoying it, & asking friends to donate colored & odd-shaped bottles! Fun garden sculpture that you can put your own personal touch on!
Only been in the ground a couple days & I love it!
