Tools of the Trade

Four important tools that every gardener should have

Spade - A basic digging instrument for sandy or loamy soil

Hand held pruners - Even in small gardens, you'll need a pair of pruners for roses and to cut back overgrown bushes.

Watering can - These are so handy for containers and hard to reach areas in the garden. Watering cans are also fun to collect and display.

Hose - In the heat of mid summer, hosing the garden is a must. Keep the garden tidy by rolling it up.
