Signature Dutch Style Planting Trowel
£29.00
This elegant yet practical planting trowel will be your new favourite tool.
Originally designed for planting bulbs en-masse to create spectacular displays like those at Keukenhof, the trowel can be used for planting out flowers and vegetables as well as weeding and cultivating. The traditional Dutch design uses a lever action instead of a digging one, hence the elongated handle. You simply plunge the flattened blade with its pointed tip into the ground and pull the handle forward to create a V-shaped planting pocket. As you move along, the next insertion closes the hole before it.
- A hardworking tool for mass planting and allotment gardening
- Overall dimensions: 43cm x 12cm x 4cm
- Made from ultra-tough, high-carbon steel with robust joints and an FSC ash wood handle
- Hand forged in the Netherlands using Swedish steel

Dan Cooper Garden tools are manufactured in the Netherlands by a family-owned business that has been making gardening tools since 1898. They are designed in such a way that they should last a lifetime and will soon become as much part of your toolshed armoury as other old favourites. Simply made and beautifully balanced, Dan Cooper Garden tools are suitable for beginners, professionals and everyone in between, making excellent 'can't go wrong' gifts.
Each tool is hand-forged using tough boron steel. The addition of boron makes the metal especially hard and durable. The tool is then carefully shaped, sharpened and burnished. To finish, an FSC-certified solid ash handle is added. Wood is naturally strong and shock absorbent, sparing your arms and wrists from some of the stresses and strains of gardening. Finally, the Dan Cooper Garden logo is lightly embossed to remind you from whence it came.
These are tools that I use day in, day out, at home and on my allotment. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
