Eight-Piece Garden Tool Set

Eight tools and a bag to keep them in: trowel, transplanter, cultivator, weeder, rake, pruner and a pair of gloves. Aluminium heads rather than pressed steel, so nothing bends the first time it meets a root, and rubberised handles that do not skid when your hands are wet.

It is the set you buy once instead of replacing a snapped trowel every spring, and it is the obvious thing to hand somebody who has just taken on their first bed.

• Eight pieces including pruner and gloves
• Rustproof aluminium heads
• Non-slip ergonomic handles
• Zipped storage bag
