The GARDENA family of tools continues to grow

The GARDENA combisystem offers gardeners suitable and reliable tools to help with all of the diverse tasks that need to be tackled in the garden throughout the year. Gardeners have relied on these durable tools for more than 40 years, now they can enjoy brand new additions.  

The current trend in gardening is to grow your own fruit, whether it's a classic like the apple tree or soft fruit-bearing shrubs. However, harvesting berries can be quite difficult if, for example, thorns are involved, and is usually time-consuming, as all the fruits have to be picked individually with the necessary care so that none are crushed.

Versatile and faster than ever

GARDENA now has the clever solution for this with the combisystem Berry Picker which is made from more than 90 percent recycled plastic. It allows many of the delicate fruits to be grasped at the same time and gently pulled off the stem without being crushed. The plastic teeth ensure that they are picked off and then end up in the collecting basket.

The rotatable attachment makes it easy to vary the size of the spaces between the plastic teeth, so the Berry picker can be used for quick and gentle harvesting of berries, but also larger stone fruit. Currants, gooseberries, blueberries or blackberries can be picked in no time. As the Berry picker can be used with the practical handle or a combisystem handle, it is also suitable for harvesting plums, cherries or mirabelles directly from the tree.

Another new attachment is the combisystem Branch Hook. The narrow “S”-shaped curved hook is used to shake down ripe apples and pears, to support branches during harvesting or to free branches from snow load in winter. During maintenance work, it is useful for pulling out branches that have been cut out of the tree. In combination with a combisystem handle, it is flexible in use and working height. Once plugged in and screwed tight, it guarantees a sturdy connection for safe use.

Everything has its place

When all the gardening or property maintenance tasks are done or the planting work is finished, tools should be stored in a space-saving way and be ready to hand for the next use.

The new combisystem Tool Rack Flex and the Tool Rack Plus make this possible and easier than ever. The combisystem Tool Rack Flex can be mounted on the wall both horizontally and vertically. It offers space for combisystem attachments and connection devices from the Original GARDENA System. It is equipped with four individual tool holders that can be flexibly aligned to the right or left, depending on the device and space requirements. In addition, the tool holdershave a small hook. Practical for storing secateurs, for example. There is also a metal bracket on both sides of the tool rack on which combisystem handles can be placed. A spade, for example, can be conveniently attached to a universal hook.

If you attach the combisystem Tool Rack Flex horizontally the metal brackets can also be inserted in this position, offering storage options for combisystem handles, which can be hooked using the locking screw.

The Tool Rack Plus is made of aluminium and therefore offers greater stability. It has a load capacity of up to 60 kilograms and is therefore also suitable for heavier implements. Three single holders provide space for spades or spade forks or tools from the combisystem and the Original GARDENA System. The universal hook with ball joint is suitable for larger implements such as trimmers or hedge clippers.

Both models are made with recycled plastic and can be individually extended with additional tool holders, handle holders and hooks as required. In future, every gardening tool will have its place.
