Quick Guide

  • The perfect Gardener's gift

  • Endorsed by the Royal Horticultural Society

  • Stainless steel with ten year warranty

  • Decorative gift box set

A practical and useful gift for any gardener, this pair of snips is endorsed by the Royal Horticultural Society, perhaps the ultimate recognition in gardening.

The high-quality scissor action garden snips carry a full ten-year guarantee and uniquely-coloured handles to complement the British Meadow pattern. Used as garden scissors, this cutting tool is perfect for harvesting flowers and fruit even from tough stems. The blades are stainless steel for rust resistance and hygiene, and the pointed blade tips allow for precise work. The pretty box is plastic-free and fully recyclable, using engineered cardboard to hold the gardening snips securely in place. 

A beautiful new collection in the RHS Gifts for Gardeners series, ‘British Meadow’ showcases delicate meadow flowers and butterflies, reflecting today’s informal gardens where nature can find a home, and the rediscovery of our love for native British wildflowers and wildlife.

The elegant new design has been created by Burgon & Ball featuring illustrations dating back to 1815, specially selected from the RHS Lindley Collections of historic botanical art. A classic navy blue background lets the jewel colours of the blooms and butterflies shine out, bringing this lovely design to life.

For London postcodes outside a 5-mile radius of our Kentish Town garden centre, we may occasionally use a third-party courier for delivery. In these cases, we try our best to still deliver the items in the requested delivery time slot but please be aware that occasionally this may not always be possible and is out of our control.

Delivery Discrepancies

Please check your order as soon as it arrives. If there is any discrepancy — such as a missing, incorrect, or damaged item — please contact us within 48 hours of delivery so we can put things right. After this time, we will assume the order was received complete and in good condition. We are unable to take responsibility for damage that has occurred after this period.

Click & Collect

We encourage you to collect from our garden centre in Kentish Town — it saves on delivery costs and gives you the chance to see our full range of plants and products in person.

Items bought in-store or collected can be returned directly at the garden centre. If you would like us to collect a return and it is in good condition (e.g. you have changed your mind), it must be in its original condition, and the same delivery cost will apply for the return.

Plants marked as reduced for end-of-season clearance are non-refundable, as they are sold specifically to clear stock. This does not apply to special offers or multibuy promotions, which are eligible for returns as per our standard terms.

Probably the world's leading manufacturer of high-quality garden hand tools, Burgon & Ball has been steel producers in Sheffield since 1730.

Heritage is paramount to the company renowned for making the best gardening hand tools money can buy. The company's history is what makes its tools so unique.

The business's origins started producing agricultural shears in Sheffield, a region renowned for steel manufacture since the 14th century. 

In 1865 James Ball patented the steel sheep shears for the first time. As a family-run business, the company opened its current factory in 1873 with the La Plata Works at Malin Bridge by the River Loxley, Sheffield.

Before the turn of the 20th century, the company grew significantly, exporting to South America, North America, Australia, the West Indies and New Zealand.

In 1920 garden shears and hand tools became the company's mainstay, with over 96 designs. 

Additional investment in a new forge, production systems and warehouse in the '70s, followed by the collaboration with designers Sophie Conran in 2010, benefitted the company with award-winning Burgon & Ball giftware ranges.

Most significantly, in 2012, Burgon & Ball stainless steel tools received the accolade of official endorsement by the Royal Horticultural Society.

 

Burgon & Ball Steel Making Expertise

Burgon & Ball steel production features the perfect balance of carbon, giving strength, and chromium for rust resistance, for the highest-grade garden tools. 

Burgon & Ball Tools Metal Composition

  • 1Ferrule: High chromium/low carbon. Why? It starts life as a disc, so we don't want this to be too hard because we want to shape it. It doesn't need strength for its end function.

  • 2Tang: Medium chromium/medium carbon. Why? It needs to be vital to resist bending but is also made from a quite thick material to give good levels of inherent strength.

  • 3Tines: Low chromium/maximal carbon. Why? Tines are the weakest part of the tool, yet they need maximum strength and hardness to resist bending in the ground.

 

Burgon & Ball Garden Tool Designs 

Burgon & Ball's beautiful tools feature the perfect design for garden tools after centuries of manufacturing experience. Beyond aesthetics, their garden tools are built for robust strength while reducing unnecessary weight for prolonged gardening activity. The company looks at how gardeners will use their tools, spades and axes needing a thicker steel gauge. Burgon & Ball's tools are designed for optimum effectiveness, efficiency, utility, weight, comfort and strength. 

Boma Garden Centre prides itself on serving professional horticulturists and gardening enthusiasts, which is why it has partnered with Burgon & Ball stocks as its first choice in garden hand tools.
