Planting Trowel | RHS Endorsed
🚚 Free UK shipping on orders over £50 🪴
This heart-shaped stainless steel planting trowel from Burgon & Ball is endorsed by the Royal Horticultural Society and designed for versatility and ease when planting.
Particularly useful for shallower digging and scooping, it is ideal for planting bulbs, bedding plants and plug plants, as well as for container gardening. The short, wide head allows you to move soil quickly and efficiently, while the pointed, sharpened tip slices cleanly through the ground.
The ergonomic design sets this trowel apart. The head is aligned with the handle, rather than angled, which makes digging more powerful and comfortable, especially when working in compacted soil.
The mirror-polished stainless steel head is resistant to rust and glides smoothly through the soil for clean, controlled planting. A comfortable FSC-certified hardwood handle sits securely in the hand, with a sturdy leather hanging cord for tidy storage in the shed.
Combining eye-catching design with excellent planting performance, this is a covetable garden tool that is built to last and backed by the Burgon & Ball lifetime guarantee.
