In my long experience as an avid gardener, I've always appreciated the ready availability of reliable garden tools. It is quite frustrating to search for garden tools for half the time while in the garden. Equally irritating is to realize that the found garden tool isn't working as expected for some reason, e.g., jammed, rusty or dirty.
Gardening is supposed to be an enjoyable and relaxing experience and so I avoid getting into this situation especially on a daily basis. That's right. Everyday, it has been my early morning ritual to deadhead plants whether for spent blooms or unwanted shoots. Although deadheading can be done manually, I prefer to use a pair of garden pruning scissors.

How to Clean Garden Pruning Shears
After a day of heavy pruning, sometimes the tendency is to just hang the pruning shears on the rack, or worse, leave the pruning shears where you used them.
Don't let this be a habit. A pair of pruning shears is probably the most used tool for tending an ornamental garden on a regular basis. It makes sense to take good care of it.
