The invention provides an annular shroud configured to be positioned around a tree stand. The annular shroud has one or more display panels configured to display digital images about a perimeter of the tree stand. In some embodiments, the invention further includes a tree stand display assembly comprising a tree, a tree stand supporting the tree in an upright orientation, and the annular shroud around the tree stand.

Apparatuses and methods for a self-deploying tree are disclosed. In an exemplary embodiment, a self-deploying tree system comprises a top tree assembly, a main tree assembly, and a base. The lower end of the top tree assembly may be coupled to the upper end of the main tree assembly, and the lower end of the main tree assembly may be coupled to the base, providing a vertical orientation of the self-deploying tree system. The self-deploying tree system further comprises a deployment mechanism which may be activated to automatically convert the tree from a collapsed configuration to a deployed configuration or from a deployed configuration to a collapsed configuration. The collapsed configuration comprises a reduced height and a reduced circumference to allow for ease of handling and storage. The deployed configuration provides for the tree to be extended to a desired height and for deployment of the limbs as desired for display.

The disclosed technology includes a universal tree stand for supporting trees with tree trunks of various sizes. The universal tree stand may include a clamping element to flexibly receive and secure tree trunks of different sizes. The universal tree stand may further include a fastening element that can tighten the grip of the clamping element around the tree trunk.

A decorative tree stand that can include a support base and a tree support pivotally coupled to an upwardly facing surface of the support base is disclosed and described. The tree support can selectively pivot to allow the decorative tree to move from a display position to a storage position.

A decorative frame having a triangular section and one or more trapezoidal sections is disclosed. The sections are connected by hinges and can be folded at the hinges to enable easy installation, storage and transportation of the frame. The frame may also be decorated using ornaments, lights and/or garlands.

The present disclosure provides an assembled stand for a Christmas tree and a support member thereof. The assembled stand includes a support portion and a carrier portion. The support portion includes at least three support members, wherein the support members are successively arranged along a circumferential direction, and when the support members are engaged with each other and are formed as the support portion, two adjacent support members are positioned relative to each other and are fixed by a first fixing member. According to the present disclosure, the volume during transportation may be reduced, and the assembly process is simplified.

An artificial tree stand device is disclosed and described. Such a device can include an upper tree frame configured to couple to and support an upper trunk portion of an artificial tree, a lower tree frame configured to couple to and support a lower trunk portion of the artificial tree, the upper tree frame being pivotally coupled to the lower tree frame, a tree stand base pivotally coupled to the lower tree frame, and wherein the upper tree frame, the lower tree frame, and the tree support base lock into a vertical position to display the artificial tree, and at least the upper tree frame unlocks to allow the upper tree frame to pivot into a storage position.

A tree collar apparatus (100) and method (900) that uses highly modular panels (200) that can be connected together by the wire assemblies (300) positioned within one or more sheaths (280) in the panels (200).
