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. 3, record 2, English, - staking

Trees up to five inches in trunk diameter are normally supported by guying with the wires attached to stakes, these guy wires spaced at 120-degree angles. Wires may be fastened to the tree in the same manners already discussed, although in this instance all attachment point should be at least six inches apart. Attachment should be as high in the tree as practical and certainly at or above the lowest branches. Again, guy wires should be attached to stakes driven 18 inches into undisturbed soil. The axis of the stake should be in line with the axis of the pull on the guy wire. 3, record 3, English, - guying

Most large trees and shrubs require support staking or guying to hold them erect against buffeting winds. Wood or metal stakes are usual for single-trunked trees up to 3 inches in caliper and provide better support if used in pairs. Guy wiring with turnbuckles is used for anchoring large plant materials, and guy placement ordinarily follows either a triangular or rectangular pattern around the main stem. Both types of support require regular inspection for proper tauntness--up to a year for woody plants .... 2, record 3, English, - guying

Le haubanage. Lorsque l'arbre planté est d’une circonférence supérieure à 16-18 ou d’une morphologie interdisant la pose d’un tuteur(conifères, par exemple), utilisons trois haubans. Un hauban est un fil de fer, avec tendeur au besoin, qui relie un piquet fermement enfoncé dans le sol à une attache protégée par un tampon sur le tronc. Le point de fixation de cette attache se trouve environ entre la moitié et la base du tiers supérieur du tronc et les fils de fer sont posés approximativement à 45 °. Le jeu réciproque des trois haubans disposés à 120 ° l'un de l'autre, immobilise l'arbre. La raideur des haubans est réglée par les tendeurs et révisée régulièrement les premières semaines après la plantation, pour tenir compte du tassement des terres. 1, record 3, French, - haubanage

Successful tree planting begins in the tree nursery with bimonthly cultivating, pruning of roots, and fertilization. This is essential to assure healthy trees and compact root structure. Planting holes for bare-root trees should be large enough to receive roots when they are spread in a natural position. Planting holes for balled and burlapped trees should be 2 feet wider than the root ball. Ideally, holes should be as wide and deep as can conveniently be made, so that the tree can be placed at the same levels as it originally grew in the nursery. 2, record 4, English, - tree%20planting

Plantation d’arbres. Les trous de plantation seront ouverts plusieurs semaines à l'avance si possible puis rebouchés(terre végétale d’apport en mauvais terrain) après avoir ameubli le fond et placé un tuteur enfoncé dans le sol ferme. L'importance de chaque excavation doit être de l'ordre de 1 à 2 mètres cubes suivant l'état du terrain et la nature du sujet prévu à cet endroit. En mauvais sol(plantation avec apport de terre), il faut prévoir 3 à 5 mètres cubes par arbre. La profondeur du trou de préparation se situe entre 1 mètre et 1, 20 m.

Most large trees and shrubs require support staking or guying to hold them erect against buffeting winds. Wood or metal stakes are usual for single-trunked trees up to 3 inches in caliper and provide better support if used in pairs. Guy wiring with turnbuckles is used for anchoring large plant materials .... All wiring should be shielded with either rubber or plastic hosing buffers where it contacts the stems to avoid bark damage and the creation of an entryway for insects and diseases into the trunk. A wire collar should never be left in place beyond its original need, since normal stem enlargement will engulf it and permanently damage the vital interior plumbing system. 1, record 6, English, - wire%20collar
