AMES rolls out new line of spring garden tools

AMES has introduced a new line of spring garden tools that are ergonomically designed for use in a standing position to minimize back strain.

The line features a stand-up weeder, garden tiller, landscape border edger, garden cultivator, spike aerator and planting auger.

“AMES tools are built to tackle the toughest projects in any weather conditions, and our new line of garden tools continues to set the industry standard when it comes to durability, quality and ease of use,” said Janelle Winey, senior product manager at The AMES Companies, Inc. “Customers can expect that every tool coming off our assembly line, out of our warehouses and into their businesses and homes is meticulously designed and undergoes careful research and testing to ensure the utmost performance.”

Some key features:

The Stand-Up Weeder aerates the soil for a healthy lawn and features an ejection slide action for easy release of weeds.

The Garden Tiller features six innovative tines for ultimate soil aeration and turnover, allowing air, water and fertilizer to mix and penetrate the ground.

The Landscape Border Edger has an arched, serrated steel blade that cuts through grass and turf in one step and is able to create straight or curved trenches for custom-shaped beds.

The Garden Cultivator features six rotating, detachable tines that penetrate soil to accommodate tilling around and in between rows with ease.

The Spike Aerator is made with an all-steel, multi-spike design that provides optimal soil penetration, allowing water, air and fertilizer to achieve faster root access.

The Planting Auger makes planting bulbs and annuals manageable from an upright position: it attaches to a power drill, which does the digging for you.
