Stretching on tip-toe to hoe inaccessible borders and beds can be a thing of the past with this newly designed Long Handled Half Moon Hoe, a firm favourite at this years' RHS Chelsea Flower Show.
• The 147cm long ash handle gives you a real chance of reaching crafty weeds in the middle of borders, which stand no chance once the generous 18.5cm wide pull blade gets to work. • The hoe is also well suited to the vegetable garden, where the sharp edges of the blade are ideal for working on hard ground and will easily draw out furrows and drills for planting seeds. • Overall length of this versatile hoe is 171cm, and the blade measures 5cm in depth.
Although the title insists it’s one for the ladies this Sneeboer long handled hoe has so many uses (combining the accuracy of a hand tool with the reach of a full sized hoe) we are sure that the man of the garden will be soon be raiding the potting shed to find it.
• Combining the accuracy of a hand tool with the reach of a full sized hoe • The extremely manoeuvrable blade measures a mere 6cm in width and is 5cm deep; small – but perfectly formed – enough to negotiate densely planted crops such as onions and carrots. • This new Sneeboer hand hoe gives a high level of dexterity in crowded borders, where the length of the 113cm solid ash handle is invaluable. • The overall length of this long handled hand hoe is 132cm.
Straight from the Sneeboer stable comes another thoroughbred; this time in the shape of a unique off-set hand hoe - the combination of an extremely sharp 12cm wide blade, 45cm long stainless steel shaft and a cherry wood handle will have gardeners everywhere backing this sure-fire winner.
• The 4cm deep blade will slice off weeds in both vegetable beds and decorative flower borders with consummate ease • The edges of the blade are specially designed to create seed drills – and all operations can be easily monitored as two thirds of the blade is set to the left of the handle and shaft.
