Bulb planting tools

What's your favourite & why?

I use either a Wolf Garden weeding tool or a hori hori knife, they're both good and can be used for other jobs.

Thanks 😊

I plant 1500 or more every year. I use a bulb trowel or, if it's gone awol, an ordinary trowel. I'm too stoney for a bulb planter but can't see why anyone would use anything other than a trowel. Well, maybe a spade if you were planting daffs into grass but I don't plant daffs.

Has anyone tried those auger drill bits for planting bulbs? Seems like a brilliant idea but I am a bit worried about breaking my drill!

I borrowed my neighbour's auger drill bit. It was very quick but mangles lots of worms. The drill got muddy and my husband got grumpy. I have gone back to using a trowel.

Thanks for this. I couldn't get the product from the link but got it from here instead. WOLF-Garten multi-change® Weeding Knife – WolfOnline
