   Mark’s Choice Stainless Steel Hand Tools
"I'm proud of these hard working yet elegant stainless steel garden tools. I have 'road tested' them in my garden and concluded that they are as close to indestructible as they come! The steel holds an edge, for reduced effort while digging or hoeing. Soil falls off of the blade - less sticking! The hardwood 'D' handle fits your hand and the 'feel' improves with use (the sign of a great hand tool!). Solid, balanced weight: a tool that grows in value with use! One more thing... the 'look' of the new Mark's Choice stainless steel tools are presentation quality. Just don't let the receiver think that they are too good to use!"

   Mark’s Choice Goatskin/Spandex Gloves
"I am a fanatic about using gloves in the garden. The damage that moist soil does to my hands is second only to the damage that the sun can do to unprotected skin. My demands for the perfect pair of gardening gloves have been met (after painstaking trials that drove our supplier crazy!). I insisted that the new Mark's Choice gardening gloves had to be:
* flexible, so that I could remove small seedlings from a tray
* tough - to repel moisture and resist wear at the finger tips (note the reinforcing!)
* wrist closure - to keep dirt from jamming down the palm
* washable - when I've been working in wet soil, I can rinse them off in a bucket or throw them in the wash and put in the sun to dry
* affordable - I want a pair in my tool shed, my garage, under my four rain barrels and at the back door.
An guess what? We did it! Enjoy Mark's Choice gardening gloves - a style for women and another for men (because we ARE different...). Tell me how they work for you!"

   Mark’s Choice Bulb Collections

"As I have traveled across Canada with Home Hardware, I’ve noticed a growing trend among gardeners - en masse plantings of bold coloured plants.When it comes to winter-hardy Holland Bulbs, the Mark’s Choice research team has come up with a knock-out collection of “monochromatic” or “same coloured” spring flowering bulbs.The varieties offered in each box have been carefully selected to provide the greatest possible show. Every variety includes “top sized” bulbs for the greatest colour and largest plants in their category. With Home Hardware’s buying power we are once again able to offer outstanding value. I am so excited about the new Monochromatic Bulb Collections that I plan to give many away as gifts this autumn."

   Mark’s Choice Pop-Up Garden Bag
"I’ve needed a big-volume leaf bag to help me get through the considerable job of yard clean up each fall. I wanted one that I could lift while it was full and not fear that the handles would rip off under reasonable weight. To save my back from excess strain, I wanted to be able to drag it over the lawn from leaf pile to leaf pile, without tearing the bottom out of it. And I wanted it to look good, or, at least not stand out in my autumn garden. And so, the Mark’s Choice research team has done it again... the perfect product for the job! Enjoy your new pop-up leaf bag. "

   Mark’s Choice Burlap Wrap
"Easy to wrap and tie! This burlap wrap is 8" x 20'. It protects trees and shrubs from snow, wind and salt damage. The unique design allows for easy intallation with 5 ft ties on each end. Never again struggle with wide, awkward swaths of burlap, while someone else secures it to the tree. Just wrap the narrow band of natural jute burlap around your upright evergreen, like you would dress a wound, secure in place with twine and the job’s done. Reusable for several years."
(Home Hardware item# 5094-515)
 

 

   Mark’s Choice Corona Pruners
"I’ve been looking for a more natural feel in the hand to my well used hand pruners - and now I have found it with this affordable Mark’s Choice model. Made for me by the world renowned Corona Company, this great pair of pruners “holds an edge” and doesn’t need constant sharpening. It springs back into the cutting position reliably even with reasonably heavy use.The pruners are light, but will cut up to a half inch of green wood without risk of twisting. And they feel balanced in my hand. For the money, these new Mark’s Choice hand pruners may be too good. But we enjoy spoiling you."
