This 8-tooth round wire broom, equipped with a hard wood handle and a mirror-polished stainless steel head, is a hybrid tool between a cultivator and a lawn broom. It is sturdy and durable, lightly tills the soil, collects lawn clippings and removes weeds, scraping the surface of the soil and moss that develops in the short grass meadow. Obviously, you will keep this stainless steel broom indefinitely and that's good, because like all tools approved by the RHS (Royal Horticultural Society), this broom is guaranteed for life by Burgon & Ball.

This Burgon & Ball round wire broom with a long handle has the specificity of being designed in collaboration with the Royal Horticultural Society, which knows a thing or two about horticulture. It is a hybrid tool between a cultivator and a lawn broom that is capable of finely tilling the surface of the soil and collecting grass clippings, leaves, etc. Equipped with a long handle made of certified FSC* hardwood, this tool preserves your back. This extra reach makes gardening behind borders easier. The narrow head makes it ideal for working between rows or in closely planted borders, and the outer teeth with double strength can be used to extract individual weeds and scrape the soil up to the edge of the border.

Dimensions of the head: 18.5 cm (7in) - Total length: 105.5 cm (42in)

The English are recognized for being the reference in gardening (if not in cooking), especially when it comes to lawn care! Promesses de fleurs has chosen the English company Burgon & Ball for the quality of its materials and its soon-to-be three-century-old steel manufacturing methods. The company has been working with steel in Sheffield since 1730, starting with a patent for solid steel sheep shears. The production of garden shears and equipment quickly surpassed that of sheep shears, but Burgon & Ball stainless steel tools are officially approved by the Royal Horticultural Society - probably the ultimate reward in the gardening industry.

The steel used for Burgon & Ball tools is alloyed with carbon to give it strength, and with chrome to prevent rust. It is a very precise balance that needs to be found between chrome and carbon, different for each part of the tool. The heat treatment allows to give exactly the right hardness to the steel for each tool. Too hard and the metal can break or chip, not hard enough and it will bend or lose its sharpness. The thickness of the steel used also depends on the tool. This flat wire broom requires a very thin steel thickness and a greater bending capacity than a knife. The thickness of the steel, which affects the weight, is also a balance that the company Burgon & Ball, with its almost 300 years of experience, has validated to ensure that its tools are both effective and pleasant to use.

Directions for use This round eight-toothed broom is a hybrid between a cultivator and a lawn broom. It is a very useful tool for creating a cultivated surface layer and maintaining a well-kept appearance for the lawn and garden in general, especially after mowing or trimming, or in autumn when trees shed their leaves, leaving a considerable amount of dead leaves on the lawn, terrace, and pathways. This broom also allows for light scarification of the lawn, meaning it helps remove moss that tends to develop in the damper and shaded areas of the grass, as well as collecting small pruning debris. Prepare a large bag for green waste or a wheelbarrow to store and transport them. You can dispose of them in the compost pile, gather them at the base of certain frost-sensitive plants to protect them from the cold, or take them to the waste disposal site. To maintain the tool's appearance, we recommend cleaning it with a stiff brush after each use and storing it away from moisture. A sturdy leather cord allows you to hang the broom when not in use, keeping it neatly stored in the shed.
