    This is a wonderful tool. I planted over a 100 bulbs in no time at all. I don't know why I didn't buy one sooner. This would be a wonderful gift to give or receive.

      Comments about Bulb Bopper®:

      This device did exactly what it was supposed to with great ease. I planed over 60 bulbs in less then an hour. I have always been reluctant to buy a lot of bulbs (Daffodils, tulips) because of the amount of effort to dig in our heavy clay soil. This did the job and next year we will do a lot more because of the ease of use.

        There is lot of information included. This is important to read! I have some clay and it still worked when conditions were right (two days after heavy rain. Do beware of irrigation pipes (as warned).

        I look forward to using this again. It made an arduous job easier and much quicker!

        Used this product to try and plant bulbs. It would not dig a hole easily, stopped many times, walked, heavy with the drill. My soil is clay so it might work in a new bed. My drill broke, I returned the product, waiting for a refund.

            Very disappointerd. It did not dig into our flower beds. Tried all over the yard and even waited until after it rained but it dod not dig a hole for the bulbs. I gave up and had better luck with a hand spade after it rained.

              Comments about Bulb Bopper®:

              I was facing the project of planting 200 spring flower bulbs for naturalizing in our rural setting. Found this Bulb Bopper and was genuinely surprised to find that such a small piece of equipment made an otherwise overwhelming task easy, and fun! This little piece of stainless steel dug down through our 2-3 inch hard pack grass root systems and tall grass areas without a single hitch. My drill has a backup power pack which allowed me to continue my work without interuption. Got all 200 bulbs planted in two 4 hour sessions. You can't beat that! Great invention and highly recommended to anyone who would rather not dig a large amount of holes for bulbs by hand.

                Comments about Bulb Bopper®:

                It makes a small hole, which may be a problem for large bulbs that require depth to ensure that the top is upright. To solve this problem, I moved the bulb bopper from side-to-side, and that worked well. In hard soils, this is a great tool. I broke a manual bulb planter on my hard soil, so I appreciate this tool.

                    Every year I plant at least 200 bulbs all over our yard. This is THE gadget for fast easy planting, never have I gotten them all in the ground in such a short time. Next year, I think I could order 400 bulbs!

                    • Daffodils deliver—by far—more flowers for a longer time with less care than any other bulbs you can plant. They’ll thrive just about anywhere, and come back year after year in ever greater numbers.
                    • When it comes to tulips, plant generously. Trench-planting method makes it easy.
