Should I take my tube off? 🌱
🦌 These photos are of a Ninebark shrub I planted in spring 2025. The second photo shows new growth extending outside the tube that was recently nipped off by deer.
We have a high deer population here, and while I was tempted to remove the tube this season, I’ve decided to leave it on for one more growing season to give the roots more time to establish before exposing the shrub to heavy browsing pressure.
For shrubs, we generally recommend leaving tree tubes on for two growing seasons.
