This Long Handle Bulb Planter is an essential gardening tool designed to create perfectly sized holes for planting bulbs, seedlings, and small plants. Often referred to as a soil auger, bulb dibber, or trowel dibber, this tool features a cushioned handle that enhances comfort during use. Its serrated base is engineered to effortlessly cut through even the toughest soils, minimising soil adhesion and ensuring a clean extraction of soil cores. This design not only facilitates the planting process but also allows for the efficient placement of bulbs in a well-defined cavity, making it easier to achieve the desired spacing and depth. Some models even include features that assist in pushing the bulb into the prepared hole, further streamlining the planting process.

The long handle of this bulb planter significantly reduces the need for bending, thereby alleviating back and knee strain, which is particularly beneficial for gardeners working in larger areas. The double pedal system enhances efficiency, allowing users to plant multiple bulbs or plants in quick succession without compromising comfort. This specific model showcases a classic T-handle design that provides excellent leverage and control, complemented by a slender shaft leading to a cylindrical digging head with serrated edges for optimal soil penetration. Ideal for planting a variety of bulbs, such as tulips, daffodils, and crocuses, this tool is perfect for flower beds, borders, and lawns, making it a valuable addition to any gardener's toolkit.

To operate, apply pressure to the foot pedal using your foot and body weight to drive the base into the ground. Next, twist the handles and lift the plug out of its position. Finally, press the elevated pedal to release the plug.

Live Plants

Dobies strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.

Non Standard Deliveries

What our customers say

"Very impressed with the quality of leek and broad bean seeds you sent. Excellent germination and look forward to a bumper crop. Will certainly be back."

E. Smyth

“I bought all my seeds, potatoes, etc. from your catalogue last year for my new ‘larger’ vegetable garden. I have to say I have never had such success in the garden. The germination was excellent; the quality of plant stock and produce is superb."

Sadie

“I am compelled to write to you and your staff for the exemplary service provided by your company, in an age where the word and term ‘service’ has lost its meaning.”
