Planting Tool

Use: Dig 2-1/8" holes for bulb and flower planting, weeding, soil sampling, or taking grass plugs. Use the depth rings to measure holes 2", 4", or 6" deep. Push the tool straight down into the earth, then twist and pull out to remove the plug. When the tool is full, turn it upside down to empty it.

Safety: Consider wearing work gloves.

Cleaning: Clean dirt away with soap and water. Let tool dry before returning.
