Abstract: A multiple tree display stand for merchandizers of Christmas trees including horizontally disposed lumber framing members joined by pairs of specially formed brackets which interconnect the framing members at corner intersections thereof, the lower bracket of each pair having an upstruck fastener for impalement of the tree butt and the upper bracket having an upwardly open slot to receive and interengage a broad-headed nail, or the like, preset in the side of the tree trunk near the butt. The dual bracket concept cooperable with a tree with the nail in its trunk is also incorporated in an alternative embodiment usable in a water bucket or the like for use as a home Christmas tree stand. A specially prepared cut Christmas tree having a headed nail selectively located and partially driven into the side of the trunk near the butt end is also featured as part of the invention.
