Tree Staking <br />Guidelines <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Install two stakes outside of <br />the root ball. <br />Remove nursery stake. <br /> <br />Keep mulch 4 to 6 inches <br />away from trunk. <br /> <br />Place non-abrasive tree ties in <br />the middle to lower portion of <br />the tree to allow 3-4” of tree <br />sway in each direction. <br />Nail tree ties to stake. <br />Apply a layer of organic mulch <br />2 to 3 inches thick inside the <br />tree basin covering the berm. <br />Remove grass, weeds, and <br />ground covers. <br /> <br /> <br />Tree stakes should be <br />firmly secured vertically <br />in the soil 2 feet deep. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />URBAN TREE FOUNDATION <br />ADAPTED BY DUDEK
