  • Patent number: 6374758
    Abstract: An apparatus to aid in the planting of pre-grown plants, flowers, and vegetables is provided that takes the shape of a garden tool with a “T” shaped handle atop a cylindrical pipe with an integral cutting edge approximately 4 inches in diameter. The cutting edge is simply placed on top of the soil where the hole is desired and pushed down while turning. The handle is then withdrawn along with a soil “plug” or cylinder. An ejection lever with associated linkage and plunger mechanisms then pushes the plug out of the invention, thus allowing the invention to quickly dig another hole.
