Abstract:
A device for preparing holes in soil for planting bulbs or small plants includes a pair of mutually opposing members including scoops located along the distal portions thereof. The tool is spring biased to a normally open position for insertion into the soil. To remove soil, the handles are squeezed together, which in turn closes the scoops to entrap soil for removal.
