Subject field(s)
  • Landscape Architecture

DEF

Supporting plants with stakes against wind-rocking and (as with e.g. cuttings) in order to promote straight growth.

CONT

Staking and Guying. Most shrubs and many trees installed in landscapes do not require support from stakes or guy wires following planting. Their trunks are strong enough to hold them upright and they are relatively small so wind will not blow them over. There are 3 reasons to stake or install guy wires on plants: 1) to protect the tree from mechanical injury; 2) to support the trunk in an upright position and 3) to anchor the tree to stabilize it against wind. Determine why staking or guying is necessary before choosing materials.

OBS

See record "guying."
