[QUOTE="Chasingmytail, post: 7799825, member: 21680"] We find it keeps them upright - def helps if you have long grass too if you dont plan to weed. Our hedging is double fence so not easy to maintain. If you push the tubes into the ground properly. Bear in mind the tubes come in different sizes we found some too narrow. We reused some of the tree guards as these are much wider and by cutting in half its good reuse value. So you could see if any used ones available. We spent a lot on these. Look out for used ones on marketplace. On the last lot of trees we sold in a few hundreds at a time. We dont like the spiral ones they go brittle and not ideal to reuse - they splinter plastic all over the place. Buy thicker bamboo canes than the rubbish ones they offer. You can find them on the net. Those thin ones snap when you push them in. Bear roots we bought from WyeVale Hereford way - quality is excellent. We have done miles of hedge. Last lot was 3000 so the tubes silly money. [/QUOTE]
