Green Heart Lifestyle Releases their Tips on Choosing the Right Pruning Shears

August 21, 2017 – – Green Hearts Lifestyle, the Niagara Falls, NY based pioneering gardening tools manufacturer has released new tips on selecting the right gardening shears as a part of their 2017 campaign on gardening and garden tools. Pruning shears are tools that are used to trim and shape plants, remove dead wood as well as damaged sections of a plant and cut back perennials.

According to Aad Hermann, owner at Green Hearts Lifestyle, “Since pruning shears are a commonly used gardening tool, we decided to help out gardeners by releasing information on the parameters one needs to watch out for before selecting the right pair of shears.”

The advice centers around 5 different factors that ought to influence one’s choice of pruning shears. This includes the type of shears available, whether it’s ergonomically designed, the quality of blades, the presence of a locking design, and its ease of disassembly.

Pruning shears are usually available in two types – bypass shears and anvil shears. Bypass gardening shears happen to be the more popular option as they give a clean cut and can be used on a variety of plants. One should always try to get an ergonomically designed pair of shears as their soft-grip handles, angled blades, and slightly curved shape make them easy to use and reduce strain on the wrists.

Gardening shears also come with blades made of material ranging from carbon to steel. Care should be taken to choose blades that are covered with a nonstick material that prevents sap and other debris from sticking to the blades. One should go for shears with a locking mechanism in place as it reduces the chances of a person accidentally getting hurt. Pruning shears that can be disassembled are a great option as it means that they can be efficiently cleaned and sharpened for further use.

Ultimately, a gardener must take into consideration all these points plus their own prior experience to select the right pair of gardening shears for themselves.
