bamboo stake

Plant's vertical brace

A bamboo stake is a length of bamboo cut and used as a support or marker, typically in gardening.

Gardeners drive bamboo stakes into the ground to prop up tomato plants, climbing beans, or young trees: I tied the sapling to a bamboo stake until it could stand on its own.
