Gardening Tools question by Kelly B: Gardening tools?
The whole experience of going to garden centres and DIY stores is driving me mad so have decided to start shopping online for all the stuff i need. Have done a search online and have found so many sites and don't really know where to start - can anyone recommend a good gardening or DIY site with lots of variety and not too expensive?

Gardening Tools best answer:

Answer by John H
Totally agree - i dont use garden centres anymore for tools etc. I use this site specifically for garden tools http://www.pentagondirect.com/department/garden although they dont sell the flowers and plants, just the equipment and tools. They have a range of products for the different areas of the garden that you may focus on and DIY stuff too if you need it.
I tend to still head to the garden centre for plants and flowers though, as i like to pick out the particular plants, which is safer i think, as you may be sent wilting or half dead plants.
