No matter how experienced you are as a gardener, beginners and experts alike should have gardening shears and pruners on hand. There are many different sizes of pruners and shears to choose from. If your plants are showing signs of death or damage you can use the shears and pruners to get rid of the parts showing the worst of these conditions. This kind of cutting and pruning keeps your plants healthy.

Cuttings are fantastic for starting new plants. Once the flowers have bloomed you can use the clippings and cuttings to decorate your home.

Everything from dirt and debris to garden tools and larger items can be hauled in a garden cart. If you have a compost heap you can use a garden cart to take compost from the heap to the garden plot. The cart is a fantastic tool to have on hand when you have a lot of dirt that you need to haul away from your garden. If you need to move a big pile of something you can use the garden cart to do it. If you are stuck you can use a wheelbarrow to do the same job.
A big rake. Your garden rake will work well in small garden patches. A big rake is something that you will need if you want to move on beyond a small garden patch to something larger. Rakes are for more than ridding your yard of tree leaves. When you are prepping for planting use your big rake to smooth down the soil as well as to turn it to increase the air that moves within it. Use the flat side of your rake to smooth out the top layer of dirt in your garden. A rake for leaves is usually plastic. Garden rakes-even full sized rakes-are usually made of metal (usually steel).
