Every Gardener Needs a Great Trowel

7

There are a lot of people who like to make lists of must have garden tools, but there are not really very many of them that you can’t make do without. However, I cannot imagine that anyone could have much fun trying to garden without a trowel. Whether you need to put that new plant in a pot or dig up a weed, you can do it with a trowel and these days it’s hard to believe just how many different kinds of trowels there are available. They come in a variety of sizes and materials, there are many different types of handles and some are even made to serve more than one function in the garden.

At Garden Tool Company, we offer more than fifteen different types of trowels to satisfy all your gardening needs. The biggest sellers are the basic garden or Dutch trowels and the transplanting trowels, but we also feature specialty trowels designed specifically for potting, weeding or cultivating. The Sneeboer potting trowel is designed to help prevent your potting soil from spilling and it’s made in either a right or left hand model. The soil scoop can open your potting soil bag with its serrated edge and Blake says you could even flip your burgers with the wide, flat Old Dutch Trowel. Sneeboer also makes two different long, thin and sharp trowels that are excellent for removing those tough long rooted weeds. Many of the trowels have handles typical of any garden hand tool, some feature a longer handle that can be used with two hands for greater leverage and the Sneeboer multi-shovel even features a cultivator on the other end making it an ideal tool for many different jobs in the garden.

All of the trowels made by DeWit and Sneeboer are hand forged and feature a lifetime warranty. Those and the trowels made by Burgon & Ball, Clarington Forge and GardenWorks all feature high quality steel. Come check them all out – after all, how can you call yourself a gardener, if you don’t have a great trowel?

The Narrow Bladed Weeding Trowel from Sneeboer Works Wonders on Long Roots

As I have mentioned before, we have some amazingly long roots on some of our weeds here in Northern Colorado, so I decided to check out a narrow bladed weeding trowel to deal with them. This is one great tool for digging down and getting at those long stubborn roots. It has a pointed end, sharp sides and is made of really strong stainless steel. On one weed, I almost fell down the hill out back when we finally won the battle and pulled that stubborn sucker out.

It also came in really handy the next day when I needed to plant some seedlings in the garden. I was quickly able to dig a nice deep hole and just pop the little plants right in. I love this trowel!
