The best seller at Chelsea Flower Show in 2011, this clever De Wit tulip trowel makes light work of planting in heavy clay soils.
Fittingly shaped like the iconic Dutch flower, the trowel displays the best of Dutch toolmaking expertise.

Like all De Wit tools, the trowel is forged from robust carbon steel and fitted with a solid ash ergonomic handle for comfortable use.

Bought 2,one for self & 1 for Christmas present. Very pleased with speed of delivery & mine is already in use.
