Frequently Asked Questions


Q: What tools do you need for pruning?

A: Your tools for pruning will depend on the size of the plant you’ll be cutting and the type of cutting that you’ll be doing. For instance, leaf snipping and flower deadheading usually only require a small pair of floral scissors or snips. Hand pruners will take care of stems and thin branches. Loppers are long-handled, heavier-duty pruning tools that require two hands to operate. You can use them for small limbs and branches on trees. Our selection of lawn and garden hand tools features all three types of tools in a variety of designs.


Q: What are hand pruners called?

A: You might hear people refer to hand pruners as garden shears or pruning shears. Other terms might include pruning scissors and snips. They fall into the same category because of their one-handed operation.


Q: What are hand pruners used for?

A: You can use hand pruners for snipping, trimming and pruning a wide variety of flowers, shrubs and even small trees. The diameter of the stem or branch will determine the blade and overall pruner size that you’ll need. Small hand pruners are also convenient for flower arrangements, houseplants and herbs.
