From removing large tree branches to carefully deadheading flowers, pruning in its many shapes and forms is a continuous task throughout the gardening year. Whether trimming perennials, tackling hedges, or cutting flowers, having quality, well-maintained pruning tools makes the task easier and more enjoyable.
I spent many years working as a professional gardener in the UK. I worked in historic gardens, including the world-famous Hidcote Manor Garden, and productive walled kitchen gardens. No matter the garden, countless hours of pruning was done to keep the plants healthy and the garden looking at its best. It helped me understand what the essential gardening tools are for pruning.
