Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up your stakes is straightforward: simply push the pointed end into the soil at the base of the plant you wish to support. For harder ground, a rubber mallet may be used to tap the stake into place. Compatibility is broad, as these are suitable for most ornamental shrubs, woody perennials, and young small trees. Regarding care, the product is designed to be truly 'set and forget.' The material is intended to oxidize naturally; therefore, no cleaning or protective coatings are required. Simply leave them in place throughout the winter months, and they will continue to provide structural support for the following growing season.
