Product Details
For planting large numbers of small bulbs, this durable garden trowel is ideal. Unlike traditional garden trowels, which are used as a scoop, this tool is designed to stab the ground. Jab the trowel straight down and pull the handle toward you to create a slot. The sharply pointed, stainless-steel blade slices through sod or soil, and is marked in inches and centimeters as an easy guide for bulb planting depth. The 12″ trowel is perfect for garden beds, and is also useful for transplanting seedlings in spring and for digging out taprooted weeds.
Shipping
HOW PLANTS ARE SHIPPED
The size of the plants we ship has been selected to reduce the shock of transplanting. For some, this means a large, bareroot crown. Others cannot travel bareroot or transplant best if grown in containers. We ship these perennials and annuals in 1 pint pots, except as noted. We must point out that many perennials will not bloom the first year after planting, but will the following year, amply rewarding your patience. We ship bulbs as dormant, bare bulbs, sometimes with some wood shavings or moss. Shrubs, Roses, vines, and other woody plants may be shipped bareroot or in pots. The size of the pot is noted in the quick facts for each item.
WHEN WE SHIP
We ship our bulbs and plants at the right time for planting in your area, except as noted, with orders dispatched on a first-come, first-served basis by climate zone. We also ship a wide range of containers and planters, tools, supplies, fertilizers, garden wear, garden decor items, as well as indoor decorations like wreaths and dried bouquets when available. Estimated dates for shipping are indicated in the green Shipping Details box for each item. Please supply a street address for delivery. Kindly contact us with two weeks notice, if you'll be away at the expected time of delivery.

Disappointed
A viewer from Oregon
Well, still looking. The pros, good length, cuts the soil great. I'm still using it but the one con... the blade bent the first time I put it in the ground and pried the soil back to place the bulb.
So it's angled after the first use.
Disappointed for the price point and wishing I had the yard tools I grew up with as a child back in the 70s.

Really good all-purpose trowel
GoldenMom from Chicago suburbs, IL
I have been very pleased with the performance of this trowel. I have used it now for about 3 years. It has never become misshapen when I dig with it. I have inadvertently left it out in the rain, and it didn't rust at all.
I use it in place of a shovel for planting small perennials, to plant bulb when I have just a few, and to dig up dandelions and other weeds.
The trowel is long enough that you get good leverage from it. So unless I have to plant something large, I can usually use it instead of dragging out my shovel.
