Before I started using the tree staking kits from Tree Frog Environmental Products (formerly Arborguy), I was frustrated with the methods of upright staking trees. This way of staking caused me to spend extra time and money to get the trees properly staked.
Since switching to Tree Frog’s tree staking kits we prefer this way of staking because the “above ground” kit is more cost effective due to the ease of installation. Tree Frog Environmental also has quality products and great customer service and I highly recommend their products and their company!

When we place an order, we have our products by the next day. They don’t mind making our custom orders when we need specific lengths for our strapping. Installing the Pro40 is quick and simple.

We have been using tree frog staking products for all of our palms and trees for the past 5 years in the Ocala Valleycrest office. All of the products are user friendly and easier to use than any competitor we have tried. Patty always responds to my emails quickly and I rarely have to wait longer than a day or two for the shipments to arrive after ordering. Great customer service and a great line of products.

I have been specifying Tree Frog’s tree staking kits for more than 5 years. I started specifying them because I wanted to eliminate above-ground guying of newly-installed trees. The standard method of providing multiple guy wires attached above the lowest tree branches prevents swaying of the trunk and does not allow proper development of the support roots of the tree. In addition, above-ground guy wires are frequently not removed, and end up damaging the trunk and killing the trees. I selected Tree Frog’s root ball staking kits because they do not penetrate the root ball, as other below-ground systems do, and the anchoring lumber decomposes naturally while being hidden from view, under mulch. The result is a healthier tree with stronger anchoring roots and no guy wire removal needed. Fantastic product! The Tree Frog root staking kit is an integral part of my standard tree planting detail.

Before I started using the tree staking kits from Tree Frog Environmental Products (formerly Arborguy), I was struggling with the other leading brands way of staking trees. Their way of staking caused me frustration due to the amount of time it took to install.
Since switching to Tree Frog’s tree staking kits we prefer this way of staking because the “above ground” kit ant the “below ground” root ball kit not only saved me time but money as well.

Before I started using the tree staking kits from Tree Frog Environmental Products (formerly Arborguy), I was struggling with antiquated way of staking trees with rope (or cut garden hose), a 2′ wood stake, and a hammer. This way of staking caused all kinds of issues: it was very time consuming. Plus it was hard to get (and maintain) tension on the ropes. Worst of all….it was unsightly. Since switching to Tree Frog’s tree staking kits we prefer this way of staking because the “above ground” kit is a simple process—all of our crewmen can easily install them. The price point is great. And most importantly, they maintain tension and look professional after the tree has been installed.
One more note about Tree Frog’s root ball kit. In 2013 we installed the Tomahawk root ball kit on Wal-Mart project #3067 Norcross, GA. and #3071 Tucker, Ga. The experience was a disaster. We proposed the Tree Frog’s kits but the architect refused to honor them as the Tomahawk was specified on the job. Our vendor misquoted the quantity we needed for each tree and after a long fight with the GC and LA, we ended up losing the battle. We were forced to install the Tomahawk system, at our cost. The Tomahawk stakes were almost as expensive as the trees we installed them on. Plus we didn’t like how they penetrate into the root ball of the tree, potentially causing damage to the root ball and root system. We will never bid on another Wal-Mart job again as long as the Tomahawk kits are specified exclusively.

We have chosen Tree Frog 1″ All Purpose strapping because it’s simply the best choice. Why buy a higher priced and weaker product from anyone else? It’s durable, easy to use and a real hit with our contractors. Patty is always a joy to deal with, they ship lighting fast and the price is right. What more could you ask for?

The people at Tree Frog and customer service is what really led me to their products to begin with. They are very quick in returning calls/emails and I know I can always get the products I need in an expeditious manner. In addition to that, the quality of product is just what we need for both our residential projects and commercial alike. We feel the Palm Batten system is far better than some of the competitors that use nylon straps, the metal bands are stronger and more durable to the Florida climate. The Pro40 and Pro60 kits are great for smaller to mid-size tree material. We’ve used thousands over the years and been very pleased with their success.
