Mel shows us the three tools that that every gardener should have in their pruning arsenal. Today take a look at this great collection of tools you just need for your garden!

• How many times do you reach for a pair of secateurs or bypass pruners when you’re out in the garden? Fiskars PowerGearX pruners are the go-to tool for any light pruning and because they have great cutting power with less effort.
• If you’re tackling bigger branches that’s when you need to step it up to a lopper. Fiskars PowerGearX lopper features the same clever mechanism, which allows you to carve through branches of up to 55 cm with little effort and again makes cutting up to 3 times easier than a standard lopper.
• One of the best things about the PowerGearX mechanism is that it gives you more cutting force when you need it most – so for a pruner or lopper that’s in the middle of the cut where the branch is thickest but on a pair of hedge shears you need cutting force at the end of the cut so you can cut easily along the entire length of the blade for a nice neat finish. Take a look at the way the Fiskars technology in the works for the hedge shears.
• Giving the garden a tidy up and a good prune gives it an instant makeover and with these three tools in the shed you’ll have your work cut out for you.
