Laura's Edition 3" x 36" Auger

Laura's go-to for annual flats and larger bulbs.

Developed in collaboration with Laura from Garden Answer, this 3" x 36" auger reflects the diameter she uses most when planting 3" to 5" potted annuals and larger bulbs — with the 36-inch length she prefers so she can drill comfortably while standing.

"If you're looking for premium quality, this is it!" — Laura

What You'll Use It For

• Planting 3" to 5" potted annuals
• Installing larger bulbs with proper root space
• Moving quickly through full flats of plants
• Planting shrub starts and small root balls
• Deep-feeding and aerating established beds
• Installing Root Quencher Jr. systems

Why Lazy Leaf Loves It

The 3-inch diameter removes more soil per rotation, which means fewer second passes and no reshaping the hole to fit the root ball. When you're planting volume, that difference adds up.

Laura uses this size most in her videos because it balances hole width with efficiency. Built by Power Planter — American-made for over 37 years — this edition is slightly lighter than the standard 3" while maintaining the durability their tools are known for. It's built for real planting days.
