Garden Bulb Planter Quick and Easy Tool – Key FAQs

• What does a bulb planter do?
  It removes a neat plug of soil to create a planting hole, helping you plant bulbs quickly and at a consistent depth with less mess.

• Can it be used in very hard or undug soil?
  It’s best used in prepared soil. For hard or undug ground, loosen the area first and water it to help the serrated teeth bite in cleanly.

• How do the depth graduations help?
  The metric and imperial markings let you repeat the same planting depth across a bed, which supports more even growth and flowering.

• What is the spring-release action for?
  The spring-release makes it easier to drop the soil plug back out of the planter after you’ve made the hole, speeding up repetitive planting.

• Will the zinc-plated finish prevent rust?
  The zinc plating improves corrosion resistance in normal garden use. For best life, wipe it clean after use and store it dry between seasons.
