All Tools are not Created Equal
Tools all gardeners should have in their shed:
Wheelbarrow- A tough, lightweight wheelbarrow is a must. A 5-6 cubic foot bin that is made of plastic (I know plastic, yuck) will last 100 times longer and be much lighter than a steel bin. This will enable you to move larger, heavier items with ease.
Rakes – Rakes are essential for good gardening. A Leaf Rake 24″ or 30″ is standard. I like a Metal Rake, because it gets through wet, heavy leaves easily. A Shrub Rake is a great thing to have for getting in between and under bushes. It’s usually only 10″-12″ in width. A hard rake is necessary for grading and leveling soil and mulch.
Shovels- A good strong Hand Shovel for planting, bulbs, annuals and perennials is a must. Shovels with a cushioned grip are great on your hands and increase leverage. A Round Point Shovel is great for digging holes and shoveling up dirt. A spade or flat edge shovel is a must for edging beds, dividing perennials, etc.
Pruning equipment- Pruning shears are one of the most important tools for all gardeners. Hacking away at a plant with dull tools can do a lot of damage. Hand pruners are great for pruning roses, small shrubs and perennials. Loppers are like hand pruners with Long Handles for pruning larger diameter branches, large shrubs and small branches on trees. Pruning Snips are like Extra Heavy Duty scissors that are great for cutting flowers. A Pole Saw is great to have for trimming high branches on trees. It is a saw on one side and a lopper on the other. They usually have a telescopic pole and I recommend one with a lightweight fiberglass pole. This makes balancing easier.
Tank Sprayer- A good 1 or 2 gallon tank sprayer is great for spraying insect, disease and Weed Control. They usually have a pump pressure spray action. This will enable you to spray larger areas at a time than ready-to-use sprays. Do not use weed control in the same tank as insect and disease control. You run the risk of killing your plants if residue is left in the tank.
Good Quality tools like Fiskars, True Temper, Radius and Truper will perform well and last for years to come. When it comes to Garden Tools, quality is the only way to go. They will save you time, money and backaches in the long run.

I would like to prune my tree by myself, but my pole pruner broke,?
Is there any retail stores that rent out pole pruner or some thing like that. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks
For the price of a new pruner, and the price of renting one, I’d just buy a new one, they don’t cost that much. Expecially if you plan on pruning in the future. Osh or Home Depot usually have them for a decent price.
