ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for mounting artificial tree branches to an artificial tree trunk. A series of bracket guideways are adapted for pivotal engagement with a plurality of branch members for movement of each member between stowed and operative positions. Each branch engages a guideway notch which suspends the branch in an operative position radially from the tree trunk. As each branch member moves between stowed and operative positions, a guideway slot receives one leg of a branch so as to enable its elbow to pass through the guideway. Upon moving the branches into a stowed or an operative position, each branch member engages a guideway slot or notch, respectively, restricting radial rotation of the branch.
