Comments about Bottle Tree:

I waited a long time to get a bottle tree and when I saw this product, I was so excited. As I was carrying it to the installation site, one of the trio of "branches" broke. Needless to say I am very disappointed in the quality.

Comments about Bottle Tree:

I have my tree in the middle part of my garden so I can see it from many windows. It shows off my blue wine bottle.
The problem I have is that the rerod is not strong enough to hold 15 bottles.

Comments about Bottle Tree:

This was a bit expensive for some bent metal, but if I had to put together a bottle tree frame myself, it would have taken a considerable chunk of time. I don't regret buying it and I'm having fun emptying fish-shaped wine bottles to complement the blue glass bottles I already had collected. I've placed it in my backyard garden and planted morning glories to climb it. I expect that the combination will be lovely! This already has withstood several strong windstorms with no problem at all.

Comments about Bottle Tree:

I placed my bottle tree in my cottage garden and it looks great! It's placed in a sheltered area so it doesn't receive allot of strong wind. I was surprized by it's durability though, as I have old, heavy antique bottles on it and it holds them succurely. And when the wind does blow it seems strong and steady.

Comments about Bottle Tree:

This is in a small front garden...People sometimes drive by and look twice. I have been asked if I made the bottle tree. I do wish that I had thought of the idea first...I don't drink wine but have asked a couple of my wine drinking friends to save their bottles for me. It is a fun piece and looks great among my flowers that are just coming up.
