In this instructional video, Tennessee Wholesale Nursery explains the proper method for planting live stakes. They advise selecting consistently moist sites such as waterlines, stream banks, or wetlands to ensure the stakes stay hydrated throughout the growing season. Before planting, the bottom ends of the cuttings should be dipped in a plant rooting hormone solution to accelerate root development. The stakes are then driven into the soil at least one foot deep, using a rubber mallet if necessary to achieve the required depth. The video also mentions that live stakes and related products are available for purchase at TNNursery.net.
