I was going to say something about allowing the bark to breathe, too. If the plastic pipe holds moisture against the bark, it could rot and kill the tree anyway. Make sure there is air flow, and room between the inside of the pipe and the tree bark. Maybe prop the bottom of the pipe up on a rock so air can go through, and water can drain out.
