If you staked any trees that were planted last fall, make sure you check them periodically to see if they are stable. Once stability is achieved, staking material should be removed. Young trees can grow quickly around staking materials, girdling (or strangling) the tree. As you can see in the photo above, the staking material was left on this tree way too long and the tree had begun to grow around the material. Trees should only be staked for one year or less.
