Wasco Nursery carries a wide variety of garden hardware to help you build, maintain, and upgrade your outdoor spaces. From ergonomic hand tools and watering solutions to structural components like trellises, Toja Grid pergola brackets, and rain barrels, our Hardware section is where form meets function.

We stock high-quality tools from trusted brands like Dewit, Felco, Radius, and Dramm, along with specialty items like birdhouses, squirrel-proof feeders, and planting dibbers. For those installing new trees, vegetables, or perennials, we also offer tree stake kits, watering wands, and fertilizer sprayers to make planting and aftercare more efficient. If you're building raised beds or framing outdoor spaces, you’ll also find Toja Grid brackets and hardware designed for modular landscape construction.

These tools and components pair well with products found in our Hardgoods section, such as soil amendments, pest control, and planting supplies. For new plantings, check out our Tree Planting Services or visit the Planting Instructions page for guidance on spacing, staking, and watering best practices.

Common questions

Tools & hardware FAQ

What garden tools do I actually need to start?

A quality trowel, a hoe, and a good hand pruner cover most jobs. The forged Dewit tools we carry are built to last a lifetime, so you buy them once.

Do you sell rain barrels?

Yes, Epoch rain barrels and stands to capture rooftop runoff for free, chemical-free irrigation.

How do I stake a newly planted tree?

Our tree stake kits hold a young tree steady while its roots establish. Stake loosely so the trunk can still flex, and remove the stakes after the first season or two.

Do you carry birdhouses and feeders?

We do, cedar bluebird and wren houses, plus squirrel-resistant feeders to bring more birds to your yard.

What are Toja Grid brackets?

A modular bracket system that lets you build a pergola, shade structure, or trellis from standard lumber, no complicated joinery required.

Do you deliver, or can I pick up in store?

Both. Stop by the garden center in St. Charles, or ask about delivery across the Fox Valley.
