    A graph \(G\) is called self-packing, if there exist an imbedding (packing) of \(G\) into its complement. If a graph \(H\) has a subgraph \(G\) and the graph obtained from \(H\) by deleting all edges of \(G\) consists of \(n\) vertex-disjoint trees, where \(n\) is the number of vertices of \(G\), with the property that anyone of these trees has exactly one common vertex with \(G\), then \(H\) is said to be tree-covered. The main theorem gives the conditions under which a tree-covered graph \(H\) with the corresponding graph \(G\) being self-packing is itself self-packing.
