Today they're endorsed by the Royal Horticultural Society and known worldwide for the quality and longevity of their tools and accessories. A Sophie Conran piece carrying the Burgon \u0026amp; Ball name is about as well-credentialled as garden kit gets: thoughtful British design, made by one of the country's most respected toolmakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA note on care\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe powder-coated steel needs little attention — rinse off soil after use and let it dry, and it will look its best for years.
