Great Dixter Trowel
Designed to the personal specifications of legendary plantsman Christopher Lloyd, the Great Dixter Trowel is a masterclass in purposeful design. Its narrow, stainless steel blade cuts cleanly through dense clay, reaches into crowded borders, and gives you the leverage you need to remove deep-rooted weeds without disturbing neighboring plants. Hand-forged by Sneeboer artisans in the Netherlands — a workshop with over a century of tradition — this trowel is built to serve you, and the gardeners who come after you, for a lifetime.
Precision Planting Tool for Sweet Peas and Long-Rooted Seedlings
The slender blade length provides the depth needed to place sweet peas, bare-root seedlings, and other long-rooted plants exactly where they belong. The rounded tip delivers a clean, controlled cutting edge, so you’re guiding roots into place rather than tearing them.
A Hand-Forged Weeding Trowel That Works in Tight Spaces
- Narrow blade slips between established plants, letting you weed without damage to neighbors
- Rounded tip creates a sharp cutting surface that severs stubborn taproots cleanly
- Full blade length reaches deep enough for long-rooted weeds and seedlings in heavy clay
- Hand-forged stainless steel resists rust and holds its edge season after season
- Durable cherry wood handle is warm in the hand and built to last generations
- Made in the Netherlands by Sneeboer — over 100 years of forging expertise
Whether you’re tucking sweet pea seedlings into a cottage border or wrestling with a thistle that has no intention of leaving, the Great Dixter Trowel gives you the control, strength, and precision to do it right. It is a premium hand-forged Dutch garden tool built not just for today’s garden, but for every garden you’ll ever tend.
