The attachment portion is configured to be received within an opening in the substrate and has a plurality of branches extending therefrom. The mounting device also includes a cap portion that is spaced apart from the base portion and defining an aperture in which the attachment portion is received. The plurality of branches engage the aperture and are configured to inhibit removal of the attachment portion from the aperture. The mounting device further includes a plurality of legs extending between the base portion and the cap portion that is configured to retain the elongated article between the base portion and the cap portion. A method of attaching an elongated article to a substrate using such a mounting device is also described.
