Finding "Smart Resources for Better Gardening" is something we take very seriously here at joegardener.com. From the annual list of The Best of the Must-haves, to products that cross our paths nearly every day, we are constantly on the lookout to bring valuable, innovative solutions to make your gardening life more enjoyable and productive.

Take a look at some of the products we've listed below that have peaked our interest along the way.

Gardening Doesnt Have to Hurt, Just Because I'm Getting Older!

A few years ago, I planted 48 quart sized autumn ferns, one at a time, never leaving my hands and knees…because I couldn’t. My back hurt so badly I couldn’t stand up, but I was determined to get those ferns in the ground by gosh, no matter how bad it hurt!

Lately, I’ve caught myself taking more time than usual to analyze the easiest plan of attack as I take on a new landscaping or gardening project. I’d like to think it’s maturity, but I know better. Where I once dove headlong into a project, I now find myself seeking the path of less resistance.

An innovative way to water

I have recently been made aware of an innovative new watering system that is designed to increase the oxygen content in water five times more than ordinary tap water. The premise is that the increased oxygen level improves the ability for plants to grow, especially when it comes to flowers and fruiting. This product definitely qualifies for the “What’s New” department.

Dual-Flo Multi-Function nozzle
The Dual-Flo Multi-Function nozzle has a patented design that allows you to control both the pressure and the volume of water, without walking back and forth to the spigot. It’s like having a spigot built right into your nozzle!

A Remote Control for the Lawn and Garden
The L.R. Nelson company has a new product that is sure to get the attention of anyone who just can’t seem to have enough remote controls. It’s called the Remote Rain and for the busy gardener, it really does come in handy.

The Garden of the Future is here Today!
Thankfully (for me anyway), microchips and remote controls are becoming as popular in the garden as they are in the kitchen, den or even the office. We knew it was only a matter of time and that time is now!

The Pocket Gardener
You know how frustrating it is to see a plant in the nursery and not have all the information that you’re looking for. Even the most complete tags don’t list nearly enough information to tell us what we really want to know. Well thanks to the power of the microchip, now there’s an answer for that problem too.
