As cooler weather approaches, it's time to gear up for fall gardening! Whether you’re container gardening, harvesting, or doing fall clean-up, these essential tools will make the job easier and more efficient.
#1. Water Nozzle When watering containers and hanging baskets, a nozzle with a narrow water pattern is a must. It helps prevent overwatering and reduces water waste. Dramm’s 170PL Water Breaker® Nozzle, with its 170 tiny holes, delivers a gentle rain shower perfect for delicate plants. The compact size allows you to water under fall plants like mums, directing water to the soil, helping roots grow deep and strong.

#2. Watering Can A well-designed watering can is essential for both indoor and outdoor plants. Dramm offers 2-Liter, 5-Liter, and 7-Liter Watering Cans with an extra-long spout that ensures balance and reduces spillage. The detachable rose attachment creates a gentle shower, while removing it transforms the spout into a tool for precision watering in tight spaces.

#4. Bypass Pruner For trimming branches, shrubs, and brush with ease, a bypass pruner is a gardener’s best friend. Dramm’s Bypass Pro Pruner uses sharp, corrosion-resistant stainless steel blades designed to bypass the anvil blade for a clean cut without damaging the plant’s bark. It’s ideal for harvesting fall produce or shaping plants for winter.

It features two pattern options: the “Shower” provides a soft, cascading flow that’s gentle on plants, while the “Stream” delivers a powerful jet for cleaning muddy walkways, making it perfect for fall garden clean-up.
