Many trees with an adequate rootball will not require staking. If your plant has a large canopy that may catch a lot of wind, you can consider a staking method shown from this website. hort.ifas.ufl.edu/woody/staking.shtml
@escambiaextension5338 ok thanks. So if it's root bound we should root prune approximately what percentage of the root ball and also what percentage of the canopy should we prune when transplanting? Since I'm in the Caribbean where it's quite hot now would that be a factor as to the amount canopy pruning I should preform?
What about staking a newly installed tree like this?
