Cut a fine figure in the garden The right shears for every situation When vegetation takes a break during the winter months, it's time for pruning. Regular pruning - whether in the fall or not until spring - promotes growth, helps prevent disease and, in the case of fruit trees, increases the yield. Whether perennials, roses, hedges, shrubs or trees: there is a suitable pair of shears for every purpose. The right choice makes work easier and ensures a clean cut. Gardena offers a range of different models that score points for their modern design, quality and outstanding cutting power and are convenient to use. Without the right cutting tool, however, pruning tall trees or plants with a thick crown can become a dangerous undertaking. Telescopic tree and pruning loppers, such as the Gardena StarCut 410 plus, allow you to prune your trees from the comfort and safety of the ground. The lopper has a working height of 6.5 metres when fully extended, making it suitable for pruning even tall trees. Cut branches can easily be removed from the crown using the clever hook feature. Precision-ground blades with a non-stick coating ensure a clean cut and reduce resistance while cutting, guaranteeing easy operation. The Gardena Tree and Pruning Lopper Telescopic StarCut has been frequently singled out for praise in product tests by well-known German gardening and DIY magazines including “Mein schöner Garten”, “Familienheim & Garten”, “selbst ist der Mann” and “selber machen”.
