Garden Tools Made In The USA With Pride
Did you know that if each American would just simply spend $30 a month (only a dollar a day) on American made goods instead of foreign goods (regular purchases of course), that would create or maintain almost 3,000,000 jobs that pay on average $40,000 per year? Sounds easy right? Seems like everyone would be doing that, right? The problem is we as Americans are not doing it.
If only Americans would take the extra step of checking where a product is made and really trying to buy a made in the U.S.A. product, things would really change quite quickly here in our country. Workers would have more job security, companies would recall laid off employees and even better they could start hiring again and get people out of the long unemployment lines.
Okay, so what does this all have to do with gardening or garden tools? Good question! The truth is each spring and summer, millions of Americans will head to their local garden supply store and buy millions of rakes, shovels, hoses, sprinklers and everything else one might need to use in a garden or around the yard, so why not buy a quality American made product since you are already looking? Maybe you would love to do just that but are unsure of which ones are in fact "made in America", well that is where this page will come in handy. I hope to give you many good product reviews and choices of garden tools that are all American made and basically do the research for you.
Please keep in mind this page is a work in progress and will grow as I find more and more products to promote that are all Made in the U.S.A. and hopefully this list can serve as a helpful guide for all of us to do our part by buying American made garden tools, hey at least it's a real good place to start.
Lawn & Garden Tip:
Watering in the morning or evening when temps are coolest and the wind is calm is most efficient because water loss through evaporation is minimal.
Made In The USA Garden Hoses
A great 50 Foot garden hose:
The Gilmour 14 Series 4 Ply Reinforced Rubber/Vinyl Hose is made in the USA (Perk) but it is a little heavier weight then the above models, so you will have to decide the weight of the garden hose is a issue for you. The hose is made of 4 ply construction, weather and abrasion resistant and has pretty good burst strength. Overall a great made in the U.S.A. garden hose.
In general I found American made Gilmour brand hoses above to have the best overall quality for the price.
This American made weeper & soaker hose is very efficient for all your lawn and garden watering needs and is known for working best with low water pressure. Great for watering new or just planted gardens, this hose is also very easy to handle because of it's flexibility. This model is 50' long.
If you are looking for something more heavy duty, the professional grade Fexogen hose from Gilmour is the only 8 ply garden hose on the market. This hose delivers more then 500 PSI burst strength. This hose is also very lightweight, floatable and comes with the crush resistant brass couplings gardeners desire. Perfect for large yards and gardens and still easy to coil even with it's 50 foot length. Even better this great American made garden hose comes with a lifetime replacement warranty.
Lawn & Garden Tip:
Plants and flowers that should be watered in the morning
and not at night include:
Apples, Pears, Melons, Beans, Roses, Peonies, Peaches, Plums, Cherries, Grapes, Strawberries, Raspberries, Tomatoes, Cucumbers, Begonias, Geraniums, Chrysanthemums & Dahlias
Made In The USA Lawn & Garden Sprinklers
Gilmour is a US company that prides itself on making great American made products, many of which are already included on this page. A great impulse sprinkler made by Gilmour is the #999ZS extra large coverage model because it is capable of watering large gardens or lawns with ease. This particular model can cover up to 8,500 square feet which is 106 feet in diameter. This also comes with a trip lever for full or partial coverage with a reversing full circle setting and a deflector dial to set distance. The entire unit is built to last with it's heavy-duty die cast zinc base and long lasting metal head construction. It even comes with a heavy duty foot step to ensure that you can easily set it anywhere in the yard or garden with little effort.
Made In The USA Garden Hose Nozzles
The Gilmour model #528T solid brass twist nozzle is made in the U.S.A. also and features included are a heavy duty solid brass construction, all brass stem, four large opening tip for full flow water pressure and easily replaceable O-ring seals for a leak proof shutoff system. Do keep in mind though that replacing O-rings is a very inexpensive faix if you should you ever even have to replace it (under $1.00 the last time I replaced one), a much better choice then buying a whole new nozzle. Another great choice for a American gardner!
Also made in the U.S.A. is the Dramm model #12380 which is a heavy duty brass adjustable hose nozzle and talk about great quality, this nozzle is a great choice. Features include multiple spray patterns for all your watering flower needs or lawn for that matter, easily switch modes too with a quick twist of the barrel. This great nozzle handles a powerful stream of water with ease.
If you are looking for a spray nozzle with a lot of spray pattern options with then look no further then the Dramm nine pattern Revolver Garden Hose Nozzle, this one has nine patterns to choose from. This garden hose nozzle has a insulated grip, heavy duty construction and a lifetime guarantee!! You can also choose from the following colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue or even berry! The company also states that this nozzle is a ergonomic GreenA garden tool too, yet another American made perk!

The Big Burning Question
Made In The U.S.A. Shovels & Spades
Trenching shovels come in very handy when you are digging drainage pipes, irrigation ditches or other narrow trenches.

UPDATE 04/24/2012
***** I just received an email concerning these Corona Hedge clippers from a customer who received them and the package did not read Made in The USA (actually, it stated various other countries as manufactured in) so I am going to do some reasearch on why this product is being advertised on Amazon as a American Made product. If I do find that it is not made here in the USA, I will remove this product from this page. Thank you all for your understanding as I investigate where these clippers are made.
Lawn & Garden Tip:
Bluegrass and Ryegrass should be cut at a height of 2 ½ -3 ½ inch height. Bermuda, Zoysia and Centipede grass should be cut at a height of 1 ½ - 2 ½ inches.

Bonus Garden Highlight
Looking The Most Fragrant Garden Flowers? Try These:
Ivory White with an even lighter ivory edge the "Narcissus Sweet Love" bulb is probably the hardest to get your hands on since it seems sell out quite quickly every year at most well-known flower bulb companies. There is a good reason for the high demand on this particular flower bulb and that is the overwhelming beautiful scent that this flower has. The blooming flowers range from 14" to 16" and the name fits them perfectly since they are sure to be loved in any flower garden.
Jonquilla Narcissi
The "Jonquilla Narcissi" is very fragrant and when grown will have two to six flowers with small cups from each bulb. These are ideal for cutting and putting in a vase because they are so beautiful and will make the whole room smell like it is filled with fresh cut flowers. These bulbs bloom late in the season and range from 6" to 24" depending on which type of bulb you select to plant. This most fragrant flower bulb is one of the most popular around the entire world and is the bestselling bulb in Germany. Named after Narcissus who in mythology was quite taken with himself, so taken in fact the legend goes that he stared at his own reflection in a pool of water until he saw his own reflection turn into a flower!
Peony Flowering Tulips
Often seen in cut floral arrangements because of their perfume smell the "Peony Flowering Tulips" have a scent that can melt many hearts and have you taking another sniff of the bouquet. These flower bulbs bloom in late April or early May and reach 14" to 22" in height depending on the particular type of bulb you plant. They are often mistaken for peonies and some call them the Double Late Tulips because of their long lasting blooms that they flower. A great bulb to try is the "Tulip Orange Princess" which is an award winning bulb because of its color and the striking glow with garnet purple flames surrounded by dark blue-green foliage.
Freesias
This very popular garden plant known as "Freesias" is grown most often because of the strongly scented flowers it produces. You can purchase these bulbs in a array of colors such as white, pink, blue, red and anything in between.
Lilium Candidum
Most commonly known as the Madonna lily the "Lilium Candidum" is a plant that blooms in the summer and has a six petal flower. The flowers are white and bloom close to ground level and this plant is highly susceptible to viruses and must be taken care of quite well to reach its full potential and beauty, but the smell of the bloomed flower is well worth the trouble.

- Excellent topic for a lens, and I agree, if everyone purchased home produced items, it would really help the economy and would stimulate jobs.
I work in the UK for a tool wholesaler (Garden, Power Tools, Automotive Tools etc) and most of our products are made in China. We get a great staff discount, but even the "Professional" level tools break more often than not.
A month ago I bought a garden fork, and within 20 minutes a prong had broken off. I got it replaced, but now after about an hour of use the prongs are already bent.
If you could buy home produced items and know they were higher quality, I think most people should go with that.
