8 Garden Tools Every Gardener Should Have

Article Category: Business

Author Name: Hans R. Luginbuhl

Several tools can do the same work and take the same role in your garden. However, that does not mean that it should happen. Cutting is cutting, but the word takes a different meaning depending on the type of plant it will be done.

Tools are specifically designed for certain types of plants. Not knowing what they are really meant for can just cause damage rather than caring.

Here are eight landscaping tools that everyone with a garden should have.

Floral scissors

These tools come in two forms: long-edged-short-handled and short-edged-long-handled. Between the two, the first one is the best choice.

It is naturally thinner than other cutting tools to prevent exerting more pressure on weak stems. Long-edged floral scissors can also easily pinpoint specific stems to cut.

Bulb trowels

These trowels are designed to more effectively turn the soil and be wide enough, at the same time, to hold bulbs when they are dug (regular trowels are too wide for the job). Trowels and knives both dig, but the latter won't be effective in crop transfer.

Gardening gloves and knee pads

Gloves are indispensable protection against dirt and thorns. But more than that, they are also good means of preventing painful blisters. A quality pair of gloves can also protect you against biting and stinging insects.

If you are planning on spending hours and hours in your garden, a pair of soft knee pads will also make the work more comfortable.

Loppers

These are pruners with long handles, meant to cut shrub and tree branches up to three inches in diameter. They can easily reach upward branches and shape bushes. These are indispensable tools, so investing on them is a wide decision.

When buying, a lopper with wood handle is the best choice. Fiberglass is also durable but slippier when used.

Rakes

A rake is the best tool in cleaning autumn leaves and gathering cut grass. Those made with steel bars and bamboo handles are the most durable but those made in plastic are the cheapest.

Because a rake does not dig deeper when used, it is the perfect tool when you have crops just starting to sprout.

Just a reminder, a rake is meant for dried leaves and grass, not snow.

Bypass pruners

For shaping, thinning, cutting, removing, deadheading, a pair of a sturdy pruner is the always the perfect match. A good pruner is something that is comfortable to the hands, can easily be sharpened and has stainless steel edge.

Dandelion digger

Many gardeners see this tool unnecessary because a simple knife can dig roots just the same. However, its shape is designed to dig out all weeds with long taproot, just like a dandelion. If you like to avoid large holes when taking out deep roots, this is the tool for you.

Spades

Whether you choose a square- or round-headed spade, the important thing is you analyze if the length is comfortable enough for digging. Used for edging, digging and removing sods, a good spade is often made of light yet durable wood.
