Provided is a supporting structure for a fruit tree branch for supporting a side branch of a fruit tree by using a supporting strap having a predetermined width or greater. Even when load due to the side branch increases by providing a plurality of inserters into which the supporting strap is inserted and combined with a length adjusting member multiple times, the supporting strap may be prevented from easily slipping or escaping from the length adjusting member, thereby fixing the side branch to a wanted position.

Devices and methods for attaching objects to living trees. Various forms of the devices employ a flexible member and mounting member that are configured to be looped and secured around a tree portion at a beginning of a predetermined time period. The mounting member and flexible member are configured to slide relative to each other to accommodate growth of the tree portion such that the device remains secured to the tree portion for at least the duration of the predetermined period of time without the need for human intervention. In other embodiments, the mounting member is integrally formed with the object or no mounting member is employed.
