The simple, unsung hero of rose growing

• The Garden Tweezer is perfect for everyday rose and garden tasks:
• Remove weeds from thorny plants and flower beds without getting stuck!
• Pick up prickly rose pruning pieces
• Cultivate and mix granular fertilizers
• Plant and transplant cactus
• Remove unwanted and damaged foliage from thorny plants
• Pre-mix powered rose sprays and chemicals
• Pick those nasty Japanese Beetles and other bugs in the garden that you don't want to handle

Rose growing is a life of learning from our mentors. More often than not, the simple things are the best.

One of these simple things came to me while watching a friend pull weeds from his potted roses. He used a 12" stainless steel tweezers. I was amazed how easy and effective it was at plucking weeds near thorny canes that normally stick into your fingers.

In addition to pulling weeds, I've learned that it is a great garden tool for daily rose tasks, and the tweezer is perfect for working with cactus and other plants.

With my tweezers, I pick up cane prunings that fall beyond my reach, scratch and mix granular fertilizers around plants, remove damaged leaves from canes, and even pluck those nasty Japanese beetles out of blooms.

I keep one in each of my greenhouses, one at work to remove paper from jammed printers, and one in the workshop to pick up dropped items.
