Garden Gear to Lighten Your Load

Spring is a good time to take stock of the condition of your gardening tools. Gloves wear thin and blades need sharpening. Here are great products to keep help you. Watering Wands – Perfect for hard to reach garden spots and pots. The long-handled wands attach to the end of your hose. We have them in bright colors with heads shaped like a flower. 

Swiss Sharpener – A must-have tool to keep knives, pruners and scissors sharp and well maintained to make clean cuts. The sharpener is guaranteed for 5 years.

Potting Bench – A solid, sturdy wood potting bench measuring 36”x22”x48”.  There’s a place to mix potting soil, and a place to hang tools and it’s finished nicely. We’ll set one  up in the store for you to try.

Frou Frou Clogs – OK, don’t let the name fool you. These are tough, durable, gardening clogs with a stylish edge – a big colorful flower on top. Now you can garden with attitude. 

“Yard Full of Sun” - A spectacular addition to the Sonoran desert-specific books being published for Arizonans.  The word “yard” takes on a whole new meaning as gardener/writer Scott Calhounshares his knowledge of plants, water andthe pleasures of living outdoors. Scott will be at Southwest Gardener teaching a class this spring. Check the listings on the front of this newsletter. 

Garden Trug – One tool, so many uses. A super-flexible lightweight container for  carrying tools, spreading mulch, hauling yard waste, mixing potting soil or collecting citrus. It’s easy to carry and UV resistant.

Hats – Sunday Afternoons’ wide-brimmed foldable hats remain popular with gardeners and hikers, and now Tula, the maker of our woven hats, has received the highest UPF  protection rating ever given. Both brands offer excellent protection from our big sun and a variety of new styles for men and women.

Expandable Rake – This long handled gem expands or narrows, depending on your needs.
