When you're ready to plant, True Temper's 7-in-1 Planter's Buddy [1] gives you a speedy, professionally styled edge.
The multi-purpose garden tool features a durable six-inch stainless steel blade, and combination straight and serrated edges that can be used for a variety of tasks, including planting, opening bags, weeding and cutting.
The curve of the blade is the pro-styled secret here, as it allows you to use the quick stab and separate motion they do when planting bulbs, annuals, and other small plants. An integrated tamper on the end of the multi-purpose Planter's Buddy's handle makes it easy to tamp down wood stakes, markers, or fertilizer spikes, and 12-inch measurement markings on the front and side are a help for your planting plan.
Look for the multi-purpose Planter's Buddy at Lowe's, The Home Depot, True Value and other fine retailers.
