Gardening gloves endorsed by England’s Royal Horticultural Society are now available from Gardener’s Supply Co.
The Gold Leaf gloves are used by gardeners at the society’s Wisley, Rosemoor and Harlow Carr gardens. They’re made of high-quality leather that conforms snugly to the gardener’s hands and are touted as being well-made, soft and comfortable.
Gardener’s Supply offers all four Gold Leaf glove styles: Dry Touch, made of a water-resistant leather; Tough Touch, designed to remain comfortable while protecting the hands from thorns; Soft Touch, multipurpose gloves that allow for maximum dexterity; and Winter Touch, which are insulated and waterproof yet breathable, so hands stay warm and dry in wet, cold weather.
Prices range from $38.95 to $49.95. Shipping is extra.
The gloves can be ordered at www.gardeners.com, or call 800-955-3370 to request a catalog.
