Trowel, Bulb/Transplanter, Weeder, or Cultivator - $14. US each
Bruce Baker, founder of Radius Garden says that he "founded Radius Garden because it bothers me that traditional garden tools force you to use your hands and wrists in ways that can cause injuries. Four out of five gardeners are injured every year while gardening. OSHA says 3/4 of all cumulative stress injuries are to the wrist and hand. Many, if not most, of these injuries can be prevented by better tool design."
Radius Garden has come up with a series of ergonomic garden tools that maximize power and comfort while minimizing hand & wrist stress. It's all in the grip that supports the wrist in a neutral position that means less chance for injury. Energy is transfered from large muscles directly to the blades making gardening easier and more enjoyable.
NRG tools have handles made of SantopreneTM non-latex thermoplastic for high performance and comfort. This soft-to-the-touch material offers a secure grip in both wet and dry condition. The specially designed NRG Green will never get lost in your garden or shed. The blades with their non-glare satin finish are of ultra lightweight aluminum/magnesium alloy for superior tensile strength.
The Trowel has beveled blades that easily cuts through compacted soil. Its squared end scoops soil from the bottoms of narrow holes while the straight blade edges are great for scraping and scooping. Use the unique back blade wings to pull roots and weed stems.
The Bulb/Transplanter features an extra-long blade with markings to measure bulb hole depths. This is a great tool for trans- planting deeply rooted perrenials and bedding plants. The beveled blade easily cuts through compacted soil and the squared end scoops soil from the bottoms of narrow holes. It has the same back blade wings as the trowel.
The Weeder is the perfect tool for removing dandelions and other tough-to-get weed roots. The sharp serrated blade easily slides through compacted earth and the curved fulcrum pops out deep, tough weeds. The tool also has the unique back blade wings to pull or cut roots and weed stems. A seed reservoir and planting channel guides herb and other small seeds exactly where you need them.
The Cultivator has an unique shape that angles tines into the soil for deep cultivation. This is a good precision tool for working small spaces and is strong enough to pull out stubborn roots.
