This De Pypere potato planter has been specifically designed for planting potato tubers or large bulbs. This sturdy model, entirely made of steel, is equipped with a long T-shaped handle and a basket that digs wide and deep planting holes. The gardener can work standing up, without bending too much, and can lean on the handle to spare their back.

Dimensions:

7.5cm (3in) diameter at the base and 12.5cm (5in) at the top - length 15cm (6in)
Total length of the tool 115cm (45in)

The use of this garden tool will be facilitated in loose and soft soils that have been previously worked, refined, and moistened. The planter is designed for cutting, digging, and excavating. This model is used to create holes up to 15cm (6in) deep and 7.5cm (3in) in diameter, which is suitable for potato tubers and large bulbs. The tool's head is inserted vertically into the soil and traps the soil in the basket. It only remains to carefully remove it from the soil and let the tuber slide to the bottom of the hole thus formed, before filling it with the extracted soil. You can also use this planter for planting young vegetable or flower seedlings grown in buckets. Steel is a shock and torsion resistant material that is 100% recyclable.

Directions for use This De Pypere potato planter has been specifically designed for planting potato tubers or large bulbs. The use of this gardening tool will be facilitated in loose and soft soils that have been previously worked, refined, and moistened. It is used to create holes that are 15cm (6in) deep and a maximum of 7.5cm (3in) in diameter. Insert the head of the tool vertically into the soil, using the handle for support. The basket traps the soil, forming a sort of carrot. Simply remove the tool from the soil carefully and let the tuber slide to the bottom of the hole, before filling it with the extracted soil. You can also use it for planting young plants grown in buckets. Clean your planter after each use to prolong its lifespan, and store it away from bad weather.
