YUCCAYUCCA : Jim K rebar technique

Jim K rebar technique

Beautiful work Jim , hard to imagine you got that from a plug root. One day it will certainly look like this and its only enemy will be wind or top heavy. Jim K came up with a fantastic idea to prevent early death from toppling over and breaking. Use a section of cut rebar metal stake driven into the ground next to the trunk(wont hurt root systems at all) and simply tie the trunk and rebar together with a tie-loop band or strap. Its really a must for all yuccas that have tendencies to topple
