Gardener's Blue Ribbon BB3 3-Feet 3 Foot Bamboo Stakes, 6-Ounce

What could be wrong with green garden stakes? The green came off on our hands but it washed right off' The consistency of the size was ok. They were strong enough to push into the ground. They are keeping the chicken wire up and the rabbits at bay.

It's a great buy for the price. Its exactly what I needed in my garden and for some of my houseplants. I even cut some down to fi smaller plants. The color does run and get all over your hands so I had to drop a star. I wish they didn't paint it. It looks better natural in my opinion. Will purchase more in the near future.

These are exactly as described. I purchased these to support seedlings I was planting in the early spring. They did, and are still doing a good job keeping the seedling upright even through several significant, windy storms. Yes, the green dye rubs off, but I usually wear gloves, so it wasn't an issue for me, especially considering the low price. I did get some green on my hands at one point, soap took it right off (soap is cheap, other bamboo stakes are not!). I actually bought a second pack anticipating more planting next Spring.

They lose a lot of their color very quickly, like you touch them and it looks like you've gone steady with the Jolly Green Giant.You have to wipe these down before using them, otherwise it's messy. Once their in the ground, they start to lose their color even more. While they might blend in upon initial use, they are not going to stay that dark of green for very long.Length wise and diameter wise, they're pretty good. Some variations allow for different plant use which is fine. They were cheap but need to just ditch the bad dye job as it's wasteful and pointless after awhile.

These 3 foot bamboo stakes are relatively strong and come in handy for so many situations in the garden. Not only for staking but helping to guide ground vines in the right direction or to help prop something from blowing over. So satisfied with purchase that I just ordered more. I received a quality product for a fair price and just ordered more.

The dye leached all over my hands, they did not hold up to being driven into the ground. Would steer clear of, and stick to metal garden stakes.

They work as intended, but....dont touch them with your bare hands (and keep them away from your clothes) as the "paint" comes right off on your hands and is difficult to wash off. Makes me wonder what I am putting next to my food in the garden. Think I will only buy these locally from now on so I can check the "paint". Photos show my hands after scrubbing twice.

They're a little thicker than a standard pencil, not completely uniform. some may be a bit thicker yet. One of mine is quite bowed but that's fine.. I like the bamboo because it wears better being stuck in soil for long periods and I find plants prop much better with these than with plastic.Just what I wanted and no nursery around here seems to have on hand.
