Pure Garden Expandable Hose
Watering is fundamental in any garden, especially during the summer months, and a wall mounted retractable hose reel like this one saves space and eliminates the tedious task of reeling the hose in after watering.
Worx 3/4″ Cutting Capacity Bypass Pruner
Bypass pruners are essential for pruning your plants and keeping them healthy. Best of all, you can adjust the width so if you share gardening duties with a partner but have different hand sizes, you can use the same pair. You can also use the closed opening for fine pruning and the wide opening for cutting thicker branches.
Evergreen Reversible Floral Garden Kneeler
Once you buy one, you'll wonder how you ever gardened without one. This is my favorite model. The comfortable memory foam provides great knee support, and it's waterproof so you can kneel without getting soaked in the morning dew.
Martha Stewart x Skechers Gardening Shoes
It may seem odd, but a reliable pair of gardening shoes is just as important as a good shovel. They need to be comfortable, waterproof, and easy to slip on and off as you move from your house to your backyard. Reviewers say these Martha Stewart Skechers are surprisingly comfortable, perfect for long days of yard work.
Radius Garden Root Slayer 60″ Drainage Spade No Grip Handle
I've tried this shovel and while I think the O-grip handle is just a gimmick, the blade is really good for cutting through tough roots and also turns over rocky soil.
Karcher S 4 Twin Push Sweeper
Cleaning your backyard can be one of the least fun tasks, but with this twin-push sweeper, it's much faster. Just push it around your patio or path like you would a lawn mower and it'll pick up leaves and debris in minutes.
Worx Wg030 1-5/8 inch Bypass Lopper
A good pair of pruning shears is essential for pruning trees to keep them healthy. Worx pruning shears are some of my favorites, with comfortable grips and durable, sharp blades that cut through thick, tough wood with ease.
Farmer's Defense Rugged Guard Leather Gloves
These are my favorite type of gardening glove. The palm is made of sturdy leather, which is great for working with thorns and prickly plants, while the thumb and two fingers are made of a softer material for more delicate work. Best of all, they're touchscreen compatible, so you can use your phone while reading my step-by-step gardening guide.
Worx 40V Cordless Hedge Trimmer – Tools Only
This is one of my favourite hedge trimmers – it's cordless, so it's lightweight and there's no risk of cutting the power cord, meaning you can get incredibly precise cuts to your hedges.
Karcher K5 Premium Electric High Pressure Washer (with reel)
It's impossible to have a sparkling patio without a high-performance pressure washer, and this model from Karcher is one of my favorites because it does an amazing job of removing dirt and stains from patio stones.
Worx 135 Mph 800 Cfm 12 Amp Electric Leaf Blower/Mulcher/Vacuum
While many leaf blowers are single-function, I like trying this model because it can also mulch and vacuum leaves. Instead of blowing the leaves away in a pile to put away, you can vacuum them up into a bag or turn them into nutritious mulch right then and there.
Evergreen Tree of Life Metal Garden Hose Holder
Keeping hoses neat and organized can be tricky, so a hose holder is a must-have, and best of all, this model is decorative, transforming your hose from an eyesore into part of your garden design.
Sun Joe 70 Gallon Multi-Purpose Tote Bag
Durable gardening bags like these are essential for almost any gardening task. Whether you're pruning, weeding, or collecting leaves, having these bags with you while you work will make tidying up a breeze.
Worx 20v 12″ Cordless String Trimmer/Edger
This is one of my favorite trimmers, not only is it great for cutting long grass around tree bases, but you can also rotate the cutting head 90 degrees to use it as a lawn edger.
Bernini 3-piece easy-to-grip ergonomic garden tool
Not everyone needs this, but if you have fine motor disorders such as arthritis or Parkinson's disease, an easy-to-grip tool like this can be invaluable.
