Walgreens is currently selling this plastic Christmas tree stand for $12. It holds trees up to 8 feet tall, 5" diameter (artificial and real). It's called the "Ultimate Christmas Tree Stand". Anyway, I've been searching for a light weight stand to use for my fake palm trees. This stand seems to do the trick. It securely held a 9 foot long piece of bamboo with a 3" diameter. It also has four holes in the bottom rim that allow small stakes to be placed through it. I'm planning to use these this coming spring to populate my backyard with a few "Wisconsin Palm Trees". Unfortunately, I won't have any photos for awhile as my backyard is full of snow! And it's still November!
