Description
A bypass pruner is a hand-held cutting tool with two sharpened, curved blades that pass by each other like scissors to make clean, precise cuts on living plant tissue.
Unlike anvil pruners, which crush stems, bypass pruners minimize damage, making them ideal for delicate, green wood and live, young stems.
- Mechanism: Two blades bypass each other (scissor-like action).
- Best For: Live stems, green wood, flowers, and shrubs.
- Benefits: Provides clean, precise cuts that promote healthy healing without crushing the plant material.
- Avoid: Do not use on thick, dead, or hard wood, as this can damage the blades or create a gap between them, rendering them ineffective
Personal recommendation from Vicki @ FNZL.
