shrub trimmer

Bush shaping tool

A shrub trimmer is a tool for cutting and shaping shrubs and hedges.

Most are powered—electric or gas—with reciprocating blades that slice through branches.

Manual versions resemble large scissors with long handles.

Also called hedge trimmers.

I need to get the shrub trimmer out before the bushes take over the walkway.
