Gardening Made Easy – With the Right Tools.

The right gardening tools are simply essential for every professional and hobby gardener. Because gardening is even more enjoyable when you have and can use the right basic equipment. With the right aids, the garden becomes a place of well-being.

The right pruning shears and a good spade are a real relief for gardening work. But that's far from all that should be found in a well-stocked garden shed. Because gardening goes far beyond cutting and digging.

To ensure that gardening is easy and working in the garden is enjoyable, a few aids are needed. Many take them for granted, but they are essential for keeping the garden well-maintained. The classics among gardening tools are the spade and shovel. These are the easiest ways to plant and transplant new shrubs and trees. A good spade makes digging a planting hole child's play. A rake and a hoe are also important. When the leaves fall in autumn, they must be removed, especially from the lawn. A rake is best for this. A hoe keeps the flower bed tidy. And depending on the size of the garden, in addition to pruning shears, you'll also need hedge and tree loppers, a branch saw, and an axe. A wheelbarrow or at least a large bucket is advantageous for the proper disposal of garden waste.

Because plants need regular watering not just in the height of summer, a watering can is essential for the plants in the garden. If you have long distances to cover and don't want to carry a lot, you can use a garden hose to help. This makes watering the plants child's play and saves your back. Since plants much prefer rainwater to hard tap water, it's worth considering setting up a rain barrel in the garden. Not only do the plants like it, but it also saves you money. But be careful in summer: mosquito larvae can quickly collect in the rain barrel. Therefore, always close the rain barrel well.

Gardening is mostly done with your hands. That's why it's particularly important to protect them. Because gardening is only fun if you don't get injured. This can happen faster than you think when working in the garden. Therefore, gloves should be part of every basic set of equipment. They provide protection, especially when pruning roses and other shrubs that can have sharp thorns. Another advantage: the gloves protect against coarse dirt and pressure points. With these little helpers, gardening becomes child's play and is actually a lot of fun!
