LIVE STAKES
Live stakes are dormant cuttings from live plants that can be installed directly into the ground in areas prone to erosion. These cuttings will root and eventually grow into an adult shrub/tree and the roots will help to stabilize the soil.
Live stakes should be installed during the dormant season to increase survival rates of the plants.
We supply several species of live stakes including silky willow, silky dogwood, black willow, ninebark, elderberry, and button bush. Availability is seasonal, so we recommend contacting us before placing an order.
Foggy Mountain Nursery is your reliable source for wholesale live stakes, serving clients nationwide. For orders below 1000 live stakes, we kindly request you to call us for information regarding availability and pricing. We are dedicated to providing exceptional service and meeting your live stake needs efficiently and effectively.
