The transplanting trowel is a more compact alternative to a regular shovel, designed specifically for precise work in the garden and flower bed: transplanting seedlings, planting bulbs and saplings, digging small holes for fertilizers, loosening the soil between rows of crops where a full-sized shovel is too large and inconvenient. The length of 500 mm allows you to work while standing in a semi-leaning position, without the need to kneel for each individual operation, as is necessary with a hand scoop. The anodized steel of the working part is a surface treatment of the metal that increases resistance to corrosion and contact with moist soil compared to regular unpainted steel. In practice, this means that the tool retains its appearance longer and does not rust even when stored in a shed without ideal humidity conditions. The narrow blade of the trowel penetrates compacted soil more easily than a wide shovel, and the shape is convenient for forming a precise planting hole for the size of a specific sapling. Frequently Asked Questions. Is the trowel suitable for heavy clay soil? The narrow blade facilitates penetration even into dense soil, although for large-scale digging of large areas, a regular shovel is still more effective. Can the trowel be used as a scoop for transplanting houseplants into pots? Yes, the size and shape are just right for such home use. A great choice for a flower bed owner, a vegetable garden with seedlings, or a small garden where the main work is precise rather than large-scale digging of the area.
