Garden Snapper for High Pruning 1m

The Darlac Cut and Hold Snapper is a 1m long reach garden pruner designed for deadheading flowers, trimming shrubs and collecting fruit without bending or stretching into awkward areas. Its high carbon steel cutting blades and twin gripper bars allow you to cut and collect stems in one action, making it easier to maintain borders, climbing plants and hanging baskets.

Weighing just over 500g, this lightweight garden tool features an aluminium shaft, zinc alloy steel handle and a 360° rotating cutting head. Suitable for both right and left handed gardeners, the long reach design can also be especially useful for wheelchair users and gardeners with reduced mobility who may find standard hand pruners difficult to use.

Benefits of the Darlac Cut and Hold Snapper

• Reach difficult areas: The 100cm length helps you access flowers and stems at the back of borders, along walls and around climbing plants without stepping into planted areas.
• Collect cuttings without bending: Twin gripper bars hold stems after cutting, allowing you to lift them away rather than retrieve them from the ground.
• Prune from different angles: The 360° swivel head allows you to position the cutting blades vertically, horizontally or upside down to reach awkward growth.
• Keep hands away from prickles: The extended reach helps you trim roses and thorny shrubs without reaching directly into the plant.
• Maintain control while pruning: The lightweight construction and single handed operation make it easier to handle when trimming flowers and light growth.
• Adapt to different pruning jobs: The removable gripper bars provide additional space when cutting slightly larger stems.

Long Reach Pruner for Deadheading and Fruit Picking

Use the Darlac Snapper to remove spent flowers from hanging baskets, prune climbing roses and gather flowers growing beyond normal reach. The holding mechanism also allows fruit to be collected after cutting without dropping it onto the ground.

The long handle is useful for working around trellis, walls and densely planted borders, while the removable gripper bars allow the tool to be used for light pruning without the holding function.
