These 16-inch (40cm) green split canes are the slightly taller, versatile cousins of the standard potting stick—an essential item for every gardener's toolkit.
Offering a bit more height than the standard 12-inch variety, these are perfect for supporting plants as they transition from plugs to 9cm or 1-litre pots. The split bamboo construction makes them lightweight yet surprisingly resilient, while the dyed green finish ensures they disappear into the background, letting your plants take centre stage.
Supplied as a value pack of 100, they are indispensable for indoor gardening. They are the professional standard for supporting the heavy flower spikes of Orchids, keeping droopy Hyacinths upright, or adding stability to fast-growing seedlings before they are ready for the garden.

Invisible Support: When using with Hyacinths or bulbs, insert the cane close to the stem and tie loosely with soft green twine or a plant clip. The green cane will blend in, making the flower look like it's standing tall on its own.
Note: This listing is for a Pack of 100 split canes.
At The Rose Press Garden, we find these slightly longer sticks invaluable for that "in-between" stage of plant growth, bridging the gap between a seedling stick and a full garden cane.
