One of the yard projects to complete in June is to engage in pruning activities. This promotes healthy growth, maintains shape, and removes dead or diseased foliage. And this deal that I have just found can help with that.
The Fiskars Micro-Tip Pruning Snips are discounted from $33.99 to $21.99 on Amazon. They are the perfect tool for quick and precise cuts of deadheading flowers and pruning delicate stems. In fact, as noted in our best pruners guide, they'll do a great job cutting the stems of bedding plants.
What I like about this deal is that you'll end up with not one but two of our best-rated pruning snips. This means you have a backup pair if one set goes AWOL or another is available should you be offered help tending to the yard. If you're a Prime Member (worth considering for Amazon Prime Day), you can expect to receive your new snips tomorrow.
Fiskars Micro-Tip Pruning Snips: key features
Our resident pruning shears reviewer, Pete Wise, had first-hand experience using these in his Fiskars Micro-Tip Pruning Snips review. He says, "These snips are perfect for taking cuttings for propagation while minimizing damage to the mother plant."
Adding: "Weighing just 1.5 oz, the SP13 is one of the lightest pruners you can buy. Plus, the sharp blades make for blissfully low-effort pruning."
They were perfect for cutting smaller, sticky plants. The non-stick blade coating stayed clean, which didn't "chew" or make a messy stem cut. The 1.81-inch blade came in super helpful when trimming the stems of broken Dahlia after strong winds swept through them, which readied the blooms for being displayed in a vase indoors.
The snips were also ideal for accurately and precisely deadheading flowers, which will be useful later in the summer.
Both sets of the Fiskars Micro-Tip Pruning Snips come with protective sheaths for safe storing and keeping the blade clean when not in use.
