Staking and guying are used to stabilize recently transplanted trees until their roots grow into the surrounding soil. In this video, Arnold Brodbeck looks at the factors that necessitate staking and guying and provides guidelines on how to select, install, and maintain them. He points out that staking and guying are very important for tree establishment in several situations: top-heavy tree crowns, small root balls, or areas with high winds. Arnold further warns that it is important to periodically inspect and adjust staking and guying because they can seriously damage trees when left untended.
