Description
Improve your tree’s structural form. Spreading limbs opens up a tree’s canopy to allow for more light and air circulation. This promotes tree health and increases fruit size and quality. Gently wedge these lightweight, sturdy plastic limb spreaders between a tree’s young, pliable branches and its trunk to encourage wider, stronger branch angles (about 45 degrees from vertical). A great investment — reuse year after year! We suggest using 6" and 9" spreaders for stone fruit trees like cherries, peaches, and plums and 9" and 12" spreaders for fruit trees like apples and pears.

Spreading those Limbs has really improved the trees ability to hold the fruit.
Shapely young trees after a summer of using them. I have moved the spreaders throughout the growing season many times to make sure that the limbs are growing in the position where I want them.

Red Spreaders
Did well. Does fall out during high winds. Like that they are red as it makes it easy to see them on the ground when mowing, so I do not mow over them.

Not used
Never used them. Only purchased to meet free shipping criteria. Even though these had a cost, there was an overall savings of about $10. They were the cheapest items to purchase.

Love These!!
Love these limb spreaders. So much easier than making your own out of thick twine and heavy washers to hold down your limbs. We even use the smaller ones on our blueberry bushes on our blueberry farm. Our Moonglow Pear grew with all branches sticking straight up so that tree got us hooked. We've been hooked ever since.

Great limb spreaders
These are perfect for training my young apple/plum trees! They are small and don't break my limbs. Definitely a must for young branches that need help being spaced out.

These little gadgets really help in the garden!
These little gadgets really help in the garden! I use them alternately for any trees. It is desirable to have all sizes in your garden.
These spreaders work very well and being plastic, are not expected to deteriorate over time. With a short spike in the center, the spreaders seem to cover the functions of both V-notch and spike…
more apples- stronger branches
Have used these limb spreaders for years and found them to be the best as they don't damage the bark by continuous rubbing as do the other types.
I have lots of fruit trees.
