Anotations

Scope note:

Relatively large hand-held shears used to cut and shape hedges, and to otherwise cut stems, small branches, and leaves of bushes and other plants in a garden or landscaping environment. For implements used to cut somewhat thicker stems or small branches, where the sharpened edges meet rather than cross, prefer "hedge clippers."
