Something like the Wolf Garten Push Pull weeder (the smaller of the two)
with a handle to suit your height.

Used correctly, back and forth, it's self sharpening too and is used both
at the RHS Wisley and at Kew Gardens.

Nice looking tool. However, handles are only 2cm different. Tool and handle
£26......bit pricy?


I like my stirrup hoe http://kk.org/cooltools/archives/3751
There is some dispute about what is a stirrup hoe I go for the
oscillating form

You can get a ridged form on E bay sizes vary but6 inch is good
