What are those large green bags I see that are placed around newly planted trees on the streetside?
The bags are often referred to by their trademark name of “Treegator Bag.” They are plastic bladders placed around a newly planted tree, zipped up, and filled with water.

They can be purchased at most home and garden stores.
