What It Is / How It Works

Plant ties are flexible fasteners used in gardens to hold stems, vines and soft growth to stakes, trellises and other supports. Gardeners use them because they can secure growth firmly without the rigid hardware that might pinch or cut a young stem.

Who It's For / Use Cases

Plant ties suit home gardeners who grow climbing vegetables, flowers or shrubs that need help staying upright. Gardeners who train vines along a fence, trellis or garden stake often reach for plant ties for this job. Container growers and raised-bed gardeners can also keep tall stems in place with them as the plants get heavier.

How to Use / Care

1. Use plant ties to fasten plants to stakes, trellises or other garden supports.

How to Choose

Choose plant ties by the thickness of the stem or branch they need to hold and by the support they will attach to. Thicker stems need a wider, sturdier tie, while thin seedlings do better with a lighter tie that will not cut into the growth. Think about the length of the job as well, because a longer tie gives more wrap around a thick support. Plant ties work best when they hold the stem snugly but leave room for the stem to thicken over the season.

Frequently Asked Questions

What color is it?
It is green.

What kinds of plants are plant ties used with?
Gardeners use plant ties with climbing vines, tomato stems, flower stalks and other soft growth that needs support.

Can plant ties be left on a plant all season?
Plant ties can stay on a plant while it grows, but check the wrap regularly so the tie does not become tight as the stem thickens.

How do I know if a plant tie is the right size?
Measure the stem or branch you need to hold and choose a tie that wraps it with room to spare. A tie that is too short will not close around a thick support.
