Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Kew Gardens mini shovels different from standard trowels?

Kew Gardens mini shovels feature longer, more defined shovel-shaped heads compared to traditional trowels, providing better leverage for digging and lifting soil in containers and small beds. Their heritage-inspired design also makes them aesthetically superior for display when not in use.

Are Kew Gardens mini shovels suitable for outdoor use?

Absolutely. Whilst their compact size makes them perfect for greenhouse and indoor plant care, Kew Gardens mini shovels are built with weather-resistant materials suitable for all outdoor gardening tasks, from alpine gardens to raised beds and border work.

How should I maintain my Kew Gardens mini shovel?

Clean off soil after each use, dry thoroughly to prevent rust, and occasionally apply a light oil to metal components. Store in a dry location, and wooden handles benefit from periodic treatment with linseed oil to maintain their appearance and durability.
