Anchoring a garden trellis doesn't have to mean digging holes or dealing with rotting wooden posts. Stake It™ ABS plastic ground anchors drive into the ground without digging and won't rot, rust, or corrode — giving your trellis a secure, long-lasting foundation. Made in the USA.
The Problem with Traditional Trellis Anchoring
- Wood posts rot: Wooden stakes in contact with soil absorb moisture and break down within a few seasons
- Metal stakes rust: Steel and iron stakes corrode, leaving stains and weakening over time
- Digging is disruptive: Digging holes disturbs roots, soil structure, and existing plantings
- Concrete is permanent: Setting posts in concrete makes future adjustments difficult
How Stake It Solves the Problem
Stake It drives into the ground by hand or with a mallet — no digging required. The ABS plastic construction won't rot, rust, or corrode, giving your trellis a stable anchor that lasts season after season without maintenance.

Post Size & Fit — Measure Before You Buy
Stake It fits standard 1" x 2" lumber — the most common trellis post size. Max post size: 1-3/8" wide x 1-5/8" deep. Total stake length is 16" (10" soil penetration + 6" locking body above ground). Posts outside this range won't seat properly in the sleeve.
Whether you're anchoring a cucumber trellis, a tomato cage, or a decorative garden arch, Stake It gives you a permanent-feeling hold without the permanence — reposition it next season without breaking a sweat. Shop Stake It →
