Despite mixed opinions, I’m a fan of bulb planters. Some would argue that rocking a trowel back and forth to create a wedge-shaped hole is enough. Or that digging a trench and planting bulbs together is the preferable route.
Well, I don’t agree.
Even as somebody who grows primarily in containers, I still love my bulb planter.
The reason is simple: it’s easier to use than a trowel and it’s good for digging holes for bedding plants too.
Anyhow, in this article I’m going to review my favourite products, along with offering some general buying advice. Let’s dive in…
6. Garden Weasel Bulb Planter
The long shaft and broad T-bar grip handles of the Garden Weasel make it easy to concentrate plenty of manpower into each hole you dig. It also features a nonslip foot plate for when extra effort is needed to dig through stubborn soil.

2. DeWit Dibber for Planting Bulbs, Seedlings and Seeds
The DeWit Dibber is perfect for planting smaller bulbs that don't need to be placed that far beneath the surface of the soil. Rather than lifting a core of dirt up and out, it simple bores a hole into the ground into which you can drop a bulb.

1. Bully Tools 92302 2.81" Diameter Bulb Planter
The three-inch diameter barrel of the Bully Tools 92302 planter lifts out more than enough soil for tulip bulbs, potatoes, and many other types of plant that must be placed deep down into the soil. Its T-style handle helps you to twist out those large chunks of dirt.
