"The tool I reach for the most is my Cobrahead weeder and cultivator ($24.95 through www.cobraheadllc.com). Its small, sharp head makes it great for winnowing out stubborn weeds, hacking through tough soil and root mass, making planting holes for small bulbs - you name it. If the Cobrahead gets too grubby, I just throw it in the dishwasher (dunno if you're supposed to do this, but oh well)." - Aldona Satterthwaite, executive director of the Toronto Botanical Garden ( www.torontobotanicalgarden.ca)
