Miracle Tube tree shelters were introduced in 1999 to compete with the tube-type tree shelter. However, Tree Pro designers took great pains to make sure the problems associated with tube-type shelters were avoided.

 

That the designers exceeded beyond their wildest expectations is attested to by Miracle Tube's top performance in independent growth and survival tests against other tube-type shelters.

 

Tree Pro designers knew from prior experience with the Tree Pro protector design that excessive heat retention was the cause of most of the problems of other shelters. They therefore formulated a polyethylene material that had just the right color and density to promote good tree health.

 

One of the potential drawbacks fo the tube-type style of tree shelter is that it cannot be opened up. This means that another method of allowing fresh air to circulate around the tree needed to be found.

 

That's how venting came about. Venting is a simple solution but one that is vital to tree health. 

 

A vented tree protector enables the circulation of fresh air through the holes in its wall while at the same time preserving most of the moisture around the tree. For applications where moisture needs to be preserved to an even greater extent (e.g., arid, desert-like environments) Miracle Tube can be supplied unvented.

 

Made of recycled polyethylene, Miracle Tube shelters come in the following heights: 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 48, 60 and 72 inches. 

 

Because Miracle Tube shelters are shipped nested together, one inside the other, their diameter ranges from about 3 1/2 inches in diameter to about 4 1/4 inches in diameter.
