ABSTRACT:
A gardening tool used for bulb planting having a frustoconically shaped earth removing portion with the approximate size and depth needed to remove enough soil to plant a bulb. The tool has a handle for holding onto the device and placing it on the ground for use without having to bend over. The tool also has a foot bar for ease of forcing the earth removing portion into the ground by standing on the foot bar. When the earth is removed and the bulb is placed in the ground, an actuating rod on the gardening tool is pulled to open the frustroconically shaped earth removing portion to deposit the soil therein on the bulb to complete the planting process.
