I wanted to see if you had a list of garden tools or products you like. I have a big birthday coming up so I want to get a wish list in order!   Thanks for your help."Good question! Let's get several ideas from other experienced gardeners, as well, including America's Favorite Retired Horticulture Professor, Debbie Flower.
