Boron steel is stronger, more durable and tougher than a like-for-like carbon steel tool – without adding extra weight. It’s also better at holding an edge for longer. BoronGreen steel is 80% from recycled sources, believed to be a first in UK garden tools.

The pointed tip of this dibber swiftly and easily creates holes for planting bulbs, seedlings and young plants. The head also features a depth gauge to make it simple to plant at the correct depth.

A tough powder coating in a distinctive green helps protect from rust. The patent-pending thermo-treated handle in FSC®-certified white ash is designed for comfort, increased durability and moisture resistance. 

BoronGreen dibber is endorsed by the Royal Horticultural Society, perhaps the ultimate accolade in the gardening world. Like all RHS-endorsed BoronGreen tools, this useful planting tool is covered by a 25-year guarantee.

Burgon & Ball tools are the only garden tools to be endorsed by the Royal Horticultural Society, one of the world’s foremost horticultural organisations and the UK's leading gardening charity.
