Gardening & Landscaping Tools for this Spring

15 September 2021

With Spring coming up hot on the heels of winter many people are looking out of their window and realising just what a mess their backyard has become. Whether its fallen branches, dry grass beds or a mound of leaves you’ve been ignoring since June, there is always plenty of work to be done once Spring comes around. Similarly, for those who work in the gardening and landscaping industry, Spring is always a busy time and getting caught without the right tools can make it difficult to do your job right.

All of this means that now is a good time to take a look at the gardening and landscaping tools you have in the shed and decide what needs to be replaced and what you need to buy to make your life a little easier this time around.

If you are not quite sure where to start below are a list of some of the best tools to consider for your gardening and landscaping requirements this spring:

Draper Tools 2 In 1 Lawn Aerator/Scarifier 

Keeping a lawn happy and healthy can often be the difference between a pleasant, green backyard and a soggy mess. One of the most important activities to maintain a healthy lawn is to scarify and aerate the surface. Aerating the surface creates holes for letting air and water reach the roots of the grass, while a scarifier pulls up thatch, moss and weeds to stop them from blocking healthy growth.

While aerators and scarifiers are often sold separately, Draper tools 2 in 1 lawn aerator and scarifier brings these two activities together, saving you time, money and space in your shed. The lawn aerator and scarifier is powered by a 1500W motor, offers a 320mm working width and operates at four adjustable working depths. This makes it easy to control how deep you want to aerate and how much thatch you want to pull up for your lawn. The Draper brand is trusted not just for home use but also by professionals, which makes it an excellent choice for anyone looking to help maintain lawn health and wellbeing.

Draper Tools Backpack Petrol Blower

One of the most obvious tasks  at the start of spring is to clean the leaves off your property. If you like taking your time then a simple rake might do the job but if you are busy, have a larger property or simply want to make the job a bit more fun then a blower can be a really satisfying addition to your repertoire.

The Draper Tools Backpack Petrol Blower is an excellent option for this job. Blowers can be heavy and difficult to wield, which is why the backpack series is so easy to use. Its adjustable shoulder straps and light weight make it easy to put on and use for an extended period of time. The anti-vibration dampers nullify any unpleasant sensations and the 2 stroke petrol engine offers great power to efficiently remove leaves and debris.

Milwaukee M18 Fuel 16” Chainsaw 

Chainsaws are some of the most important gardening and landscaping tools to have in the shed or on the job. A good chainsaw can save you a lot of time and effort when cutting through wooden materials, which has made them so popular over the years. Milwaukee has always been one of the best brands available for power tools. Its excellent construction, ergonomic design and unmatched power make it one of the most trusted brands on the market today.

The M18 Fuel 16” Chainsaw delivers up to 150 cuts per charge and maintains speed under heavy loads, making it ideal for cutting hardwood. Its REDLINK PLUS intelligence ensures that the chainsaw maintains maximum performance while offering excellent protection from overload or overheating.
