A stand (10) for supporting a Christmas tree (12) having a trunk (14) with a butt end (16). The stand includes a base (18) having an upwardly opening tree well (20) adapted to receive the butt end (16) of the trunk (14). The base (18) also has an upwardly opening support post well (34) and a support post (28) adapted to be rigidly engaged in the support post well in unturning relation in an upright position. A trunk brace (36) has a multiplicity of support post holes (40) adapted to slip over the end of the support post (28), to engage it in unturning relation. The support post (28) is adapted to so engage the sides of the support hole (40) through which it extends as to support the trunk brace (36) at a selected distance above the base (18) in rigid, unturning relation with respect thereto. A retention band (42) is adapted to bias and retain the trunk (14 ) against an engaging surface (38) of the trunk brace, securing the tree (12) in the stand (10).
