Description
Professional Wide Trowel for Planting and Transplanting
The WOLF-Garten LU2K Wide Trowel features a 7cm cold-rolled steel blade and an ergonomically designed fixed handle engineered for control, comfort, and power. Perfect for planting bedding plants, transplanting seedlings, and working in containers, this professional-grade trowel delivers the strength and precision needed for successful planting tasks.
Key Features
- 7cm wide blade: Ideal width for planting bedding plants, bulbs, and transplanting seedlings
- Cold-rolled steel construction: Extra-strength blade resists bending and maintains its shape through demanding use
- Ergonomic fixed handle: Specifically designed for control, comfort, and power
- Finger contours: Shaped grip provides precise control during delicate planting operations
- Padded grip: Soft-touch surface reduces hand fatigue during extended use
- Large handle end surface: Designed for palm-pushing when extra power is needed to penetrate compacted soil
- German engineering: Professional-quality construction built to last decades
Ergonomic Handle Design Explained
The LU2K's handle represents WOLF-Garten's commitment to ergonomic excellence, incorporating three key design principles:
Control
Finger contours moulded into the grip ensure the trowel sits naturally in your hand, providing precise control when working around delicate roots or positioning plants accurately in tight spaces.
Comfort
The padded grip surface cushions your hand during extended planting sessions, reducing pressure points and preventing the hand fatigue common with basic trowels. This comfort advantage is particularly noticeable when planting large quantities of bedding plants or bulbs.
Power
The large, flat surface at the handle end is designed for palm-pushing—when you encounter compacted soil or need to dig deeper, simply place your palm against the handle end and push. This transfers force efficiently without straining your wrist or fingers.
Cold-Rolled Steel Advantage
Unlike stamped or pressed steel blades that can bend or flex under pressure, the LU2K's cold-rolled steel construction delivers exceptional strength and rigidity. This robust blade maintains its shape even when working in heavy clay soils or rocky ground, ensuring reliable performance season after season.
The cold-rolling process also creates a smoother, denser surface that resists soil adhesion and cleans easily—a practical advantage when working with sticky clay or wet compost.
Ideal Applications
- Planting bedding plants and annuals in borders
- Transplanting seedlings from trays to final positions
- Planting bulbs in established beds
- Working in containers, window boxes, and raised beds
- Digging planting holes in prepared soil
- Mixing compost into planting holes
- Lifting and dividing small perennials
- General potting and container gardening
Why Choose a Fixed Handle Trowel?
While WOLF-Garten's Multi-Change® system offers versatility, fixed-handle tools like the LU2K provide specific advantages for certain tasks. The permanently attached handle creates a single, balanced tool optimized for hand-held work. There's no connection point to maintain, and the weight distribution is perfect for close-up planting tasks where you're working at ground level or over containers.
For gardeners who prefer traditional tool formats or who primarily work in containers and raised beds at waist height, the LU2K delivers professional quality in a familiar, comfortable design.
Professional Planting Tips
Proper Planting Depth
Use the trowel blade as a depth guide. For most bedding plants, dig holes slightly deeper than the root ball, then backfill to the correct level. The wide blade makes it easy to create appropriately sized holes without excessive digging.
Transplanting Technique
When transplanting seedlings, use the trowel to lift a generous root ball, minimizing root disturbance. The 7cm width is ideal for module-grown plants and small pot sizes.
Bulb Planting
For individual bulb planting, push the trowel into the soil to the required depth, rock it back to create space, drop in the bulb, and backfill. The ergonomic handle makes repetitive bulb planting less tiring.
Care and Maintenance
Clean the blade after each use to prevent soil build-up and corrosion. The cold-rolled steel is durable, but storing the trowel clean and dry will ensure decades of reliable service. The padded grip can be wiped clean with a damp cloth.
