Once you switch to the Root Slayer you might not even notice them most of the time. The Root Slayer is really a multi-purpose shovel that can eliminate the need for other tools, such as hatchets, pry-bars, and saws, when simply digging around the home. If you’ve ever hit roots while trying to plant a perennial, or been stymied by roots when trying to dig up a shrub, or tried to divide hostas with a spade only to have them slide away from your shovel, you’ll know what we’re talking about. You can use the Root Slayer as your go-to shovel. You can also use it to replace your nursery spade. Think of it as a shovel, root hatchet, and root saw all in one tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1095\/6568\/files\/GREEN_Thumb_Award-2017_copy_1_large.jpg?v=1478023434\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","image":{"created_at":"2016-11-01T14:03:26-04:00","alt":"","width":2048,"height":1536,"src":"\/\/radiusgarden.com\/cdn\/shop\/collections\/IMG_0912_4.jpg?v=1478023406"}},{"id":159055105,"handle":"great-gift-ideas","updated_at":"2024-12-03T12:50:03-05:00","published_at":"2015-12-17T16:32:00-05:00","sort_order":"manual","template_suffix":null,"published_scope":"global","title":"Great Gift Items For Every Occasion.","body_html":"","image":{"created_at":"2016-01-02T08:49:50-05:00","alt":null,"width":300,"height":191,"src":"\/\/radiusgarden.com\/cdn\/shop\/collections\/IMG_4436-s_8ab2a924-6289-4fcc-8359-f1c96f23e707.jpg?v=1451742590"}}]
