This is a great tip! I'm forever heading out the door and within 5 minutes I have to turn around and go back to the garage to find my gloves and pruners. There's always something that needs pinching or pruning! I moved about 8 months ago and at the old house I always had a basket with tools, gloves, plant ties etc. sitting on the deck for those chores ... don't know why I haven't thought of it since moving ... Thanks so much for the reminder!
