Ultimate Rock Gardeners Tool

from $45.00

Reviews of the ultimate gardeners tool:

“A wide handle is pleasant to grip, especially for long sessions of use. I like the gently- cupped side for separating seedlings with deep roots. It really honors the century-long tradition of rock gardening in being practical, but also beautiful, reminding me to embrace the sacred, slow meditation of honest work. “

Kenton Seth, Colorado-Garden Designer, Crevice Garden Builder, Blogger and Author of “The Crevice Garden”

“I love this tool! It allowed me to get tiny weeds that have grown around the succulents in my garden with minimal disturbance! Where have you been all my life? Can't wait to use it to row out Sempervivum seedlings.”

Kevin Vaughn, Renowned plant breeder, author, and recipient of the 2024 Marcel Le Piniec Award from the North American Rock Garden Society.
