plant stake

Vertical stem prop

A plant stake is a rod or stick inserted into the ground to support a growing plant, keeping stems upright and preventing damage from wind or the weight of fruit.

Stakes are typically made of wood, bamboo, or metal.

The plant is tied loosely to the stake as it grows: She staked the tomatoes before they got too tall.
