Tips for Selecting Garden Tools

Bestopltd@gmail.com (admin) — Sat, 15 Dec 2007 09:58:52 +0800

Before you stock your garden tool shed, you should first think about what kind of gardening you do. Go through the following list of questions and jot down the answers. This will help you think about what tools you’ll really need for gardening and yard care.

How much time do you spend gardening?
Do you have large or small garden plots?
Do you have a lawn with turf grass? If so, how big is your lawn?
Do you want to growing primarily ornamental plants?
Do you plan on growing fruits and vegetables?
Do you have shrubs and trees that may need pruning?
Do you have a number of houseplants?
Do you compost your garden waste and kitchen scraps?

Another important tip for when you’re ready to buy your garden tools is to purchase the highest quality tools that you can afford. If you purchase cheap tools, they typically won’t last very long and you’ll end up spending more money replacing them than if you’d purchased high quality garden tools to begin with. Remember that proper care of your garden tools will ensure a long life. Please refer to our garden tool maintenance guide for tips on how best to care your tools.

Funky Garden Tools

Bestopltd@gmail.com (admin) — Sat, 15 Dec 2007 09:54:10 +0800

Who says gardening is for squares? Not us. We think it's rather trendy these days. All that pruning, digging and aerating is incredibly therapeutic. What's more it's not just fusty old Percy Thrower-types (ask your parents) who enjoy trimming their borders; fork-wielding presenters such as Charlie Dimmock and Kim Wilde are helping to make gardening quite cool. Well, ish.

Secateurs

William Morris floral print

The trouble is the tools of the trade haven't changed much since the days of Capability Brown (ask your great grandad). And that's where our Funky Garden Tools come in. These high quality implements are nothing new in terms of functionality, but they look about a million times more interesting than the dreary forks, trowels and secateurs found in most garden sheds. And gardening is all about aesthetics, isn't it?

Hard wearing

Fully licensed by the V&A Museum, Funky Garden Tools are adorned with an attractive William Morris floral print entitled Daisy. 'William who?' we hear all you non-arty types ask. William Morris was one of the principal founders of the Arts and Crafts movement, and a celebrated designer of patterned fabrics. So as well as getting to grips with a few highly practical gardening tools you get to gawp at an iconic pattern that helped define an era. Or something like that.

Crafted in coated aluminium, Funky Garden Tools are as hard-wearing as they are eye-catching, and they make ideal pressies for style-conscious gardeners who have yet to succumb to Titchmarsh levels of tedium. In fact these arty tools are so appealing you'll want to leave them on show, not hide them in the hedgerow.

Whether you go for the secateurs (with Teflon-coated heat-treated blades), the hand trowel and fork, or all three, you can be sure you're buying some of the finest gardening tools your garden has ever tussled with. So get ordering. You dig?
