Each tie is a wide, flexible black strap, 10 inches long, with wire at either end for fastening to a stake. The broad strap spreads pressure across the bark, so it will not cut into the trunk or choke the tree the way twine or bare wire can. A young transplant has only a small root system and can rock loose in a storm; a tie like this keeps it upright while the roots take hold. Ten tie sets come on a hang card.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTen ties per pack:\u003c\/strong\u003e Enough sturdy tree ties to secure a row of saplings or to use two ties per tree on a taller specimen.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWide, flexible strap:\u003c\/strong\u003e The broad band cushions the trunk and flexes with it, so the tree can still sway slightly and build a stronger stem.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire ends for fastening:\u003c\/strong\u003e Thread the wire at each end around a stake and twist it closed; no knots or extra hardware needed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10 inch length:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long enough to loop around a young trunk and reach a nearby stake with room to adjust.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbout Gardener’s Blue Ribbon:\u003c\/strong\u003e The brand is known for garden support products such as plant stakes, tomato cages and ties, and this tree tie carries its model number T019B.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Install It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrive a sturdy stake into firm ground a few inches outside the root ball, on the side the prevailing wind comes from. Loop the strap around the trunk about a third of the way up, loose enough to slip a finger underneath, then pass the wire ends around the stake and twist them together. Use two stakes and two ties on opposite sides for a taller or top-heavy tree. Check the ties every few weeks and loosen them as the trunk thickens, then take them off once the tree stands on its own, usually after the first full year. The ties also brace tall shrubs and heavy-headed perennials to a stake.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: T019B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCount: 10 tie sets per package\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrap length: 10 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: wide flexible strap with wire ties at each end\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse: staking newly transplanted trees and young plants\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eStop by Garoppo’s Stone \u0026amp; Garden Center and Feed \u0026amp; Pet Supply to see it in person and pick one up, or schedule local delivery within our service area.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardener's Blue Ribbon","offers":[{"title":"10 Pack","offer_id":52721624219940,"sku":"50158","price":8.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0968\/5322\/9860\/files\/gardener-s-blue-ribbon-gardener-s-blue-ribbon-sturdy-tree-ties-10-pack-t019b_27aa1f96-aa3e-4292-95c7-37c2dae26ca3.png?v=1789735102","url":"https:\/\/garoppos.com\/products\/gardener-s-blue-ribbon-sturdy-tree-ties-10-pack","provider":"Garoppo's Stone \u0026 Garden Center and Feed \u0026 Pet Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
