CobraHead 'Steel Fingernail' Weeder and Cultivator SUPPLY CobraHead 'Steel Fingernail' Weeder and Cultivator SUPPLY
Code: 81643
Price:$24.95
Quantity in Basket: none
I don’t usually get excited about small tools but the CobraHead got me excited about weeding. Made in the USA of knife-quality steel, it’s simply the best all-around small tool I’ve come across. National Garden Club testers were really impressed with the tool and all it can do. It cuts through all types of soils. The weeds it can’t cut, it lifts. The self-sharpening blade can be used in all directions. The comfortable handle is made from recycled plastic. The CobraHead has a full one-year warranty against manufacturer defects. If defective, return it within the year together with your receipt, and we’ll send you another or refund your money. (Review by Ira Wallace)

180 days. Allium Oschanini. [French heirloom] Prized by French gourmet chefs, these small, teardrop-shaped (1" x 1-1/2") bulbs have a hard, grey skin and tender, pinkish-white flesh. They have a distinctive, rich, earthy smell, and mild, delicious flavor. Grey shallots are considered by many to be the only "true shallot." Each shallot plant grows 6-10 shallot bulbs and in warmer zones shallots can be planted in fall from sets (late September to early October) or in March in colder zones. An old adage says: "Plant on the shortest day, lift on the longest day." Starter Package: 4 oz. Cannot ship bulbs outside the U.S.


Garlic, multiplier onions, shallots, perennial leeks, ginseng, and goldenseal are all shipped separately in the fall only. We encourage early orders because some varieties sell out well before the shipping date. Please do not ask for priority shipping when you order these items!



***Note: A typo in the 2010 catalog listed the price for Grey Griselle Shallot as $4.50; actual price is $8.50. Originally listed in our 2010 catalog as Certified Organic; we've run out of organic seed, so this seed lot is now Eco.******
