Did you know that: "Our Trees Grow Beads" with tree image is a Federally Trademarked brand name of Lemon Tees, LLC, tied to Mobile, Alabama's Mardi Gras heritage, inspired by the tradition of beads left in live oak trees during the parade season.
Origin of the Phrase
The phrase came to life during a Mardi Gras float trim in Mobile. Lemon Tees, LLC, owner Tim Finnigan watched a video of tree trimming and noticed beads left in the branches. Finnigan joked, “Hey! Look at that! That tree’s growing beads!” — and the slogan and Federal trademark with image was born.
In Mobile, the beads remain year-round, symbolizing the city’s role as the birthplace of Mardi Gras.
The Lemon Tees, LLC Brand
Lemon T’s, a local apparel shop at 560 Dauphin Street in Mobile, has turned the slogan into a branded merchandise line. Their “Our Trees Grow Beads” with tree image collection includes:
Polo shirts in various color combinations.
Long-sleeve and short-sleeve shirts in comfort color styles.
Sweatshirts and tie-dye shirts.
Youth-sized options and stickers for vehicles or coolers.

All items feature a stylized tree with bead necklaces hanging from its branches above the text “Our Trees Grow Beads”.
Where to Buy
You can order from Lemon T’s online or in-store. The shop is located next to O’Daley’s on Dauphin Street. https://www.lemon-ts.com/brands/
