Solid Bamboo Tree Guard Stakes – 750mm – Qty 100

Our 750mm Solid Bamboo Stakes offer a superior alternative to standard hollow bamboo and traditional hardwood stakes. These stakes are precision-split from large, mature bamboo culms to create a dense, solid profile (not hollow). This results in a product that combines the natural flexibility of bamboo with the structural rigidity usually associated with timber, making them ideal for high-demand horticultural and viticultural environments.

Every stake is professionally pointed at one end to ensure easier soil penetration, even in firmer ground. Their lightweight yet incredibly strong nature makes them a preferred choice for supporting plastic tree and vine guards, ensuring protection for young plants without the bulk or weight of heavy hardwood.

Why Choose Solid Split Bamboo?

While standard bamboo canes are excellent for light tasks, their hollow nature can lead to splitting or snapping under lateral pressure. The solid 20mm x 10mm profile of these split stakes provides a much flatter and more robust surface area, which is specifically beneficial when pinning tree guards. You get the benefits of a timber-like performance with the sustainability and cost-effectiveness of bamboo. Supplied in convenient packs of 100, they are an essential stock item for commercial growers and landscapers.

FAQs

Are these more durable than standard bamboo canes?
Yes. Because they are solid throughout, they do not harbor moisture or pests in a hollow center and are much more resistant to snapping under tension.

Can they be used with various types of tree guards?
Absolutely. The 20mm width provides a stable anchor point for triangular or square plastic guards, as well as mesh protectors.

Is the pointing sharp enough for hard soil?
The stakes are pointed to a sharp taper, allowing for significantly easier entry into most soil types compared to blunt-ended stakes.

Are they treated with chemicals?
These are natural bamboo products, making them safe for use with organic crops and sensitive young plants.
