The Burgon & Ball RHS Ergo Deadheader combines thoughtful design, precise engineering and real gardening insight. Created in collaboration with the Royal Horticultural Society, it’s a tool that feels as good to use as it looks — intuitive, efficient and beautifully made.
Designed to fit naturally in the palm of your hand, the Ergo Deadheader makes deadheading easier and more comfortable than ever. Instead of a traditional scissor grip, the tool uses a gentle squeeze mechanism that mirrors the natural motion of the hand. The result is excellent control with very little effort, allowing you to work longer without strain or fatigue.
The fine stainless steel blades deliver clean, accurate cuts that encourage healthy regrowth and prolonged flowering. Perfect for roses, annuals, perennials and bedding plants, these snips give you the finesse needed for delicate work and the reliability for daily use.
The spring-free design ensures smooth operation and eliminates jamming, while the contoured handles rest softly in your palm for a relaxed, confident feel. Every part of the tool reflects Burgon & Ball’s heritage in Sheffield metalwork — from the polished finish to the sturdy construction that promises long-lasting performance.
Endorsed by the RHS, this deadheader represents the best of British garden design: practical, precise and elegant in its simplicity. It turns a routine task into a satisfying ritual, allowing you to care for your plants with calm precision. Once you use it, it quickly becomes an essential part of your gardening routine.
