Underground Guying
& Ties

Underground guying systems and tree ties for streets, public realm and landscape schemes

Tree Support for Successful Establishment

Newly planted trees need stability while roots establish. GreenBlue Urban underground guying systems and tree ties help keep trees upright, reduce wind movement and create cleaner stake-free landscape finishes.

Our range includes concealed rootball anchoring, overhead support systems and tree restraint accessories for streets, public realm and landscape schemes. These solutions help support successful establishment while improving the finished appearance of planting projects.

Designed to Work as Part of a System

Underground guying systems and ties are most effective when considered alongside wider tree planting infrastructure.

They are commonly used with tree guards, tree grilles, irrigation and aeration systems, structural tree pit systems and specialist tree soils.

This joined-up approach helps trees establish successfully while maintaining attractive, practical landscape outcomes.

Choosing the Right System

Selecting the right support system depends on tree size, planting type, site constraints and the visual requirements of the scheme.

Root-balled trees often benefit from concealed underground guying, while sites with underground services may require non-driven anchor solutions. Some projects prioritise stake-free finishes, while others require temporary support systems, tree guard restraints or additional stabilisation for larger trees and exposed locations.

Choosing the correct system helps reduce establishment failures, improve presentation and support healthier long-term tree growth.
