A GARDENA spreader XL being used to disperse fertiliser on a healthy, green lawn.

As the vibrant colours of summer fade in Zimbabwe and we approach the dry winter months, our gardens require extra attention to stay healthy and beautiful. While milder temperatures are a great relief, they also bring less rainfall and dormant growth patterns. 

Fertilisation is essential for supporting healthy root development and ensuring that your lawn and plants receive the nutrients they require to survive the winter and thrive in the spring. This is why fertilising your lawn and flower beds during winter is essential

Even if plant development slows throughout the winter, it does not fully cease. The roots of your lawn and plants are still hard at work beneath the surface, laying the groundwork for a strong spring recovery. Fertiliser application during this period supplies vital minerals that promote root development and enhance stress tolerance against cold weather.

Fertiliser spreaders: The key to even application

While homeowners and gardeners should understand the importance of fertiliser, it is equally important to learn how to apply it evenly. This is where Cutting Edge’s GARDENA fertiliser spreaders become your secret weapon for a thriving winter garden. Uneven fertiliser application can result in patchy growth, burnt areas, and wasted product. GARDENA fertiliser spreaders provide a simple and practical solution.

These nifty gardening tools have simple settings that allow you to customise the spread pattern and application rate based on the type of fertiliser and the size of your lawn. This guarantees that your plants get the exact amount of nutrients they require.

They also enable effortless distribution. The days of hand-feeding fertiliser and risking uneven application are over. GARDENA spreaders properly distribute fertiliser across your lawn, minimising the danger of missed patches or regions of over-concentration.

Fertiliser spreaders offer time-saving efficiency; a GARDENA spreader makes it simple to fertilise your grass in a fraction of the time that it would take doing it by hand. The user-friendly design and rapid application process save you energy, allowing you to spend more time in your garden.

Unique features of GARDENA fertiliser spreaders

Cutting Edge supplies a few GARDENA fertiliser spreaders to suit a range of garden sizes and requirements. Some of their distinguishing qualities include ergonomic designs and lightweight materials, making them comfortable to operate and providing a fatigue-free fertilising experience. Some fertiliser spreaders have wheels so you don’t have to hold the load of fertiliser while you walk around your garden.

GARDENA fertiliser spreaders also have customisable spreading widths, so you can effectively apply fertiliser across tiny beds or large lawns. Some models have closed hoppers which protect unused fertiliser from moisture while also ensuring correct application rates.

GARDENA fertiliser spreaders are not just for fertiliser application. Some types have replaceable spreading discs and can be used to distribute grass, sand, seeds, and salt during the winter frosts. This adaptability makes them an invaluable multi-purpose tool for any Zimbabwean gardener.
