Need Ground Stakes?

These are rather heavy and they do hug the ground. I simply use U-shaped landscaping stakes to keep the seam close together. Landscape fabric is on the bottom side of the tree ring.
Was this Answer Helpful ?I have never found the need for ground stakes. It's a relatively heavy rubber ring
Was this Answer Helpful ?The rings are quite heavy due to the material used - course-grind recycled tires. Mowing over the edges does not lift them at all. I did not use stakes at all.
Was this Answer Helpful ?They do best with landscape pins which prevent the rings from opening up. However, they won't move if not adhered to the ground.
Was this Answer Helpful ?They do not have to be fastened. They are heavy and remain in place.
Was this Answer Helpful ?No ground stakes under normal conditions. Stakes are not much help in tornados or hurricanes. These are quite dense and heavy. They are not aerodynamically designed.
Was this Answer Helpful ?It does not need ground stakes. Because they are flexible, they lay flat on uneven ground very well. Mine stay put in high winds - and yes, we get some strong winds. Have had no problems.
Was this Answer Helpful ?I use landscape steeples, like to hold weedproof fabric in place, for mine to ensure they stay in place while I mow around the tree with my zero turn.
