The De Wit Perennial planter. This heartshaped spade is made in Holland, and this perennial planter is based on a traditional Dutch tool design. A long handle that's 45cm (17in) long so as to give extra reach and leverage. The design is perfect for digging and dividing perennials, lifting weeds and planting bulbs with precision. This heart shaped tool is a must for border perennial planting. Pointed and sharpened for easier soil penetration. The shaped end is designed for digging a rounder hole. Reducing risk of air pockets when back filling. Every De Wit garden tool is handmade in Holland; hand-forged from solid, top quality steel, shaped, sharpened and finally fitted with an oiled, solid ash wood handle of the finest quality. Special feature: A lock nut is fitted to the tool head for tightening the handle and head during natural wood shrinkage. This keeps a solid feel over the lifetime of the tool. The Dutch are rightly regarded as makers of the finest gardening tools. De Wit have been around longer than anyone. They started in 1898 and the 4th generation of De Wits are now in charge of the business; one is a trained wood turner, the other trained as a blacksmith. De Wit forge their tools from carbon steel in the traditional way. Carbon Steel is naturally tougher than stainless steel and is not prone to metal fatigue. De Wit also burnish their steel. This not only helps to protect it for longer but gives it a patina that blackens it - just like traditional English tools from the Edwardian era. All De Wit tools have turned hardwood handles of oiled Ash. Ash is not only very strong but resists shock better than woods like oak or beech, which is why it was traditionally used for Axe handles. Size Head: 15cm wide ( 6) Total Length: 50cm long (19.5)
