What Use Is A Hula Hoe?

Also known as a stirrup hoe, this garden tool is used for weeding shallow-rooted weeds in garden beds and for maintaining or creating bed edges.

Tools are “the rock stars of your garden,” say Sean and Allison McManus in The First-Time Gardener: Growing Plants and Flowers. “Your go-to collection of hand tools for digging, weeding, pruning, mulching, fertilizing, and so much more. Sure, your hands can be used for some of these tasks, but for best results you need the proper tools.”
