Gardening tips with Knifewear with Neighbours Nursery

Our good friends at Neighbours Nursery taught some quick gardening tips. We hope to do more with them this coming summer, so stay tuned to our youtube or instagram to make sure you don't me them. 

 How to take black currant cuttings.

Here they taught us how to take cuttings from a softwood perennial, specifically Black Currant using the Chikamasa Herb Snips.

Black currant is a beautiful and delicious addition to any perennial garden. The distinctive flavour of the berries is a favourite of birds and humans alike. Even just a handful will take your baking from good to *chef's kiss*, and don’t get us started on black currant jelly.

Transplanting Rosemary

Here we use the Nisaku UEKAEMEIJIN Stainless Steel Transplanting Knife

to transplant some Rosemary, this knife is super flexible and is prefect to dealing with any root bound plants that need to be transplanted.
