TOP GARDENING EQUIPMENT EVERY GARDENER SHOULD OWN

16 Jan 2012


Owning the right gardening equipment is one of the most essential considerations to keeping your garden beautiful throughout the year.



Maintaining your garden is an important part of keeping it healthy and beautiful. While dedication and hard work are very central here, you’ll find that owning the right gardening equipment is one of the most essential considerations to keeping your garden beautiful throughout the year. After all, without the right gardening equipment, you won’t be able to care for your plants, maintain the soil and nurture growth. What gardening equipment should you have?

Gloves

Gloves are vital pieces of gardening equipment and will help ensure that your hands are protected no matter what you might be doing. From thorns to shovel handles, your hands face a number of threats every day in the garden. Make sure you have a pair of leather gloves that will hold up to the abuse of gardening.

Spades and Shovels

Digging is an important part of maintaining your garden, and you’ll need to the right type of gardening equipment here. There are numerous types of spades and shovels on the market, each designed for a specific type of duty. Make sure you have spades with sharp blades so that you can penetrate soil and tough roots if necessary.

Japanese Gardening Knife

A Japanese gardening knife is an invaluable, versatile piece of gardening equipment. You’ll find that this one tool can perform five different tasks. It works as a knife, but it can also be used as a trowel, while the saw blade can be used to divide plants or cut roots as needed. It also doubles as a crevice tool, giving you a plethora of uses in one compact piece of gardening equipment.

Hand Rake

While large leaf rakes are important pieces of gardening equipment, they can’t get everywhere. You’ll need a good hand rank to get under shrubs and between flowering plants in your flowerbeds. Hand ranks are ideal for raking up dead leaves from delicate flowerbeds, as well as for removing debris without damaging crowns.

Digging Fork

A digging fork is a piece of gardening equipment used for mixing in soil amendments, for breaking soil and for helping transport plants. This piece of gardening equipment can be large or small, but a larger, long-handled version might be the best option for most gardeners.

Hand Pruners

Finally, you need a pair of hand pruners. This piece of gardening equipment is vital for trimming back small branches and flowers, and helping to ensure that you are able to remove dead plant material to keep the rest of your garden healthy and looking good.
