Determine the placement for each post, considering the plant's mature size and support needs.
Gently hammer or push the posts into the ground to the desired depth. For hard soil, a rubber mallet or light hammer may be necessary.
Secure the plant to the post using soft ties, garden twine, or plant clips, ensuring not to constrict the stem.

They can be used in various soil types, though installation may vary.
Care:
The green-coated surface is designed for low maintenance. Periodically wipe the posts with a damp cloth to remove dirt or debris if desired.
Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the coating.
Store posts in a dry place during the off-season if they are removed from the ground, although they are designed for outdoor durability.
