ABSTRACT:
A tool for removing roots and plants from the earth while only minimally disturbing the surrounding area. The tool includes a first, proximal end for attachment to a device for rotating the tool and a second end including a three-tined head. One tine or prong of the three-tined head is longer than the remaining tines and serves to anchor and stabilize the tool in a working position while preventing a vibration or wandering of the tool during rotation. Adjacent prongs or blades rotate about the elongated prong as the body of the tool is rotated and thus disrupt the soil and root system of the undesired plant enabling the plant to be easily removed from the ground.
