Serrated Tie

The Vilmorin Serrated Ties (Reference: VH06076) revolutionize ecological staking in the garden. These innovative ties, made from cereal starch, offer a 100% biodegradable alternative to traditional plastic ties. With their optimal 15cm length and anti-slip serrated surface, they guarantee secure and durable support for all your plants, from young shoots to established shrubs.

A versatile solution for all your staking needs

These serrated ties adapt to a multitude of garden applications. Perfect for tying tomatoes to their stakes, supporting loaded fruit branches, or securing young trees against wind. Their flexibility also allows them to be used for training climbing plants like roses, clematis or ornamental vines.

Professional gardeners particularly appreciate their effectiveness for temporary labeling of plants and marking planting areas. In market gardening, they excel at maintaining crops in rows and facilitating harvesting operations. Their neutral color blends harmoniously into the plant decor without creating visual pollution.

Ecological innovation: cereal starch serving gardening

The composition based on cereal starch gives these ties exceptional properties. Unlike plastic ties that persist for decades in the environment, these ties decompose naturally in a few months depending on climatic conditions. This biodegradability eliminates risks of soil pollution and preserves beneficial garden fauna.

The patented serrated surface ensures optimal grip without injuring bark or delicate stems. The micro-reliefs adapt to different diameters and textures of plants, creating firm but non-restrictive support. This technology prevents tie slippage even on smooth stems of bamboo or metal stakes.

Weather resistance is remarkable: these ties withstand temperature variations, humidity and UV rays throughout an entire growing season. Their natural elasticity accompanies plant growth without creating strangulation, a frequent problem with rigid ties.

Simple use and professional installation techniques

Installing these ties requires no specific tools. Their 15cm length allows easy wrapping around standard stakes and provides sufficient growing space. For optimal installation, position the tie halfway between two growth nodes on main stems.

In fruit arboriculture, make a double turn around the stake before tightening moderately on the stem. This technique distributes pressure and avoids friction points. For fast-growing plants like cucurbits, check tightness every two weeks and reposition if necessary.

Maintenance is minimal: ties remain flexible even after prolonged sun exposure. At season''s end, you can leave them in place to decompose naturally, or remove them to compost with your green waste. This usage flexibility greatly simplifies seasonal garden management.
