Setup, Compatibility & Care
For installation, clear the intended area of large stones or roots to avoid damaging the pointed tip. Drive the stake vertically into the ground to ensure maximum stability. If installing in particularly hard or dry soil, consider using a pilot hole or soaking the ground area first to make insertion easier.
While the stakes are pressure-treated, they can be painted or stained with wood preservatives if you wish to match a specific color scheme. To prolong the life of the stakes, avoid constant exposure to standing water if possible, though they are rated for harsh outdoor conditions. Inspect the stakes annually for any signs of physical wear or mechanical damage from wind or garden machinery.
