Tree Watering Stake Large for Trees, Bushes, shrubs, Irrigation Stake 8 inches (3)

Ordered 18 of these watering spikes for some very young trees and some large climbing roses that are still establishing and am very pleased. These stakes are so tough I think they will outlive me! Trees are getting more water and are looking better already. Excellent customer contact and service, too!

I purchased these for a large potted tree. I thought they would be heavier and would hold water. I was going to use them while out of town for a few days. They do not hold water, but they DO get the water down to the roots of the plants when you are watering. My plant is thriving. I soak around the entire base of the plant and water into the tree stakes until they are overflowing. If you are going to use these for a tree planted in the ground, I might suggest getting the larger ones.

These are very heavy duty, and easy to install. Just need a rubber mallet or soft soil and a heavy foot. With that said, they don’t hold a lot of water so I’m still not sure they really really do much. But they are, they say they are

Got a Crape Myrtle, root ball was so hard that the tree was drying out. The stakes allowed the water to get in, is showing new growths.

Not so great for trees, but did wonderful in grass yard to eliminate puddles and to allow better absorption to grass roots in areas with harder soil.

I have ordered these twice, and will probably order more. They work great in our rocky soil to get water into the root zone.

Product came as advertised and eBay to use

They fill up with dirt quickly and become useless. Manual also requires rubber hammer (not included).
