The Sonance 9-inch Composite Ground Stake is a short-length stake intended for 6-inch satellites in installations where deeper stakes are impractical — shallow soil over hardpan, root mat, or buried utility lines. The 9-inch length provides a working anchor in suitable soils, though heavier satellites may not be fully supported in loose, sandy, or saturated conditions.

Specify the 9-inch stake only when site conditions specifically call for it; default to 18-inch aluminum or 19-inch composite stakes for typical landscape deployments. The brown finish disappears into mulch and planted beds. Order one stake per satellite location.

Confirm the site conditions before ordering 9-inch stakes — most landscape installations are better served by the standard 18-inch aluminum or 19-inch composite stakes, which provide more reliable hold across typical residential and commercial soils.

For typical residential and commercial landscape installations, specify 18-inch aluminum or 19-inch composite stakes for reliable hold. Reserve the 9-inch stake for sites where soil conditions specifically require a shorter anchor.
