Garden Claw
the box says my garden and my back will love it. Any experience to report? I have some sinfully neglected flower beds that I know still have perreniels that I paid good money for, so the claw is going in!

1. A friend of mine gave me one. Actually, it's not bad. Got me back
to the 1950's doing the twist. Actually pulls weeds up too.

I have yet to dirty my Claw. Any helpful hints or is it as easy as the commercial? Please keep in mind Wisconsin heavy clay.

4. i bought one a few months ago
i haven't used it as much as i thought i would because my soil is really hard clay, but i don't regret the purchase. it's definitely been useful.

5. I'm trying to reclaim some flower beds
I worked with my claw yesterday. It is effective but still hard work. The lilies of the valley have completely over run the flower bed that runs the length of the house on the south side and they're really boring once they're done blossoming. Sooooo, I'm ripping them out so I can get some color inthere. And they will be back next spring anyway!

Thanks All!!!
