There's always a ground mounted vertical, such as the Butternut HF6V or HF9V.
Considering that they are omnidirectional and long (in wavelengths), they are
quite effective on 40-30-20m and will handle full power.
They work on the higher bands as well, but if you ground mount them terrain
absoption becomes a significant factor.

Subject: [TowerTalk] Second antenna options?
With a tower in-place that doesn't have enough height to stack a second beam,
and without another high spot to use for something like an elevated dipole,
what are some good options for a second antenna that covers one or two of the
same bands as the primary beam?
