Description
Known to Bonsai gardeners as a bonsai rake and spatula, Spika is the tool for delicate weeding. The three-pronged rake is to tidy the soil surface around your precious plants, in pots or in the border, while the spatula is to dig out weed roots. The spatula can also be used in the greenhouse, for pricking out and even to lever out tap-rooted weeds such as dandelions.
