In the larger pruning tools we have the Tiffany Products, an
American type of heavy shears, for hedges, large limbs> and for
work that requires a certain power and strength.
Not only is this the time to prune your orchards, but the shrub
bery and trees around your lawns, on your forest growths* or any
place where the foliage needs looking after.
All manner of equipment for your spring clean up of your
trees and shrubs in every character of growth on the place.
Pinehurst Warehouse quality in tools never fools anybody. It
is the best.
