6' Metal Stake
- Staking some newly planted trees is recommended to provide support and stability until the tree roots become established. Here are some factors you should consider when choosing the materials to stake your trees.
- Tree size. Canopy size, height and overall size will influence the materials used to stake a tree. Generally, wire basket trees require thicker and longer stakes to provide adequate support while smaller container and bareroot trees can be staked with lighter materials.
- Wind exposure. Consider the prevailing wind direction, strength, and frequency in your planting location. If the site is prone to strong winds, you may need larger, more robust stakes to stabilize the tree effectively. You may need to add 2 or more stakes around the tree in more extreme locations.
- Soil and sub soil conditions. Loose soils or soils that have been recently excavated may require longer stakes to anchor securely.
- It is important to note that not all trees require staking, although it is recommended for tree establishment, staking may hinder the tree's ability to develop a strong root system if left on for too long.
