Among the many great gardening events going on this time of year is Perennial Gardening Month, which is the month of June. This is a great time for all of you perennial plant fans to discover new summer blooms to add to your collection, whether it be yarrow or lavender.

Perennial gardening is convenient

While perennial planting is a great option for people with disabilities since it requires less constant maintenance, there is still work that must be done year round for these long-living plants. It’s our job here at The Wright Stuff to make this work easier for our patrons with disabilities and their families.

There’s a special place in our heart for gardening and gardeners, and so on the occasion of Perennial Gardening Month, let’s take a look at some adaptive garden tools specifically useful for perennial planting.

Prune your perennial garden with ease

According to the National Gardening Association, pruning is important to maintaining a perennial garden. The ARS (Always Really Sharp) Telescoping Razor Edge Pruner will help you pick off unwanted growths, such as damaged leaves and spent flowers, without having to bend over, climb, or navigate through a lot of shrubs.

This long-reaching pruner can be adjusted between 4 and 7 feet in length. The head is made of long-lasting stainless steel and features a neck that tilts conveniently up and down up to 30 degrees.

Our trowels offer maximum utility

The National Gardening Association also says that digging up and watering the soil with a trowel is important to maintaining a perennial garden. Traditional trowels can cause strain on the wrist and fingers. Instead use the Easi Grip Garden Trowel, which has an upright ergonomic handle to save your hand joints.
