Staking plants

My favorite stakes are the English Y stakes. They are flexible to bend around plants as needed and quick to use -  nothing to tie. I've been staking plants, such as iris, astilbe, bellflowers, and lilies. Here is a picture of the stakes with some iris.
You can also see some lady's mantle in the front of the bed and weigelia in the back. I've planted hot lips salvia amongst the iris, so they will be blooming when the iris finish and for the rest of the summer.
