Buying Guide: Deep Drip Watering Stakes

Choosing a Stake Length by Plant
The 8 in. stake suits flowers, fruits, vegetables and other small garden plants. The 14 in. stake suits shallow-rooted plants such as shrubs, vines, potted plants and ornamental trees. The 24 in. stake is intended for medium trees, including newly planted trees, fruit trees and saplings, while the 36 in. stake is intended for large, established trees and palms.

How the Perforated Stake Works
The perforated stake delivers water deep into the root zone rather than across the surface. It also fertilizes and aerates the soil as it waters. Using it can save up to 50% of outdoor water use by preventing runoff, evaporation and excess surface watering.
