If you need to get up close to trees and hedges, try this tripod ladder. Although it has just one adjustable leg, it\u2019s fitted with wide, clawed feet to keep it stable on uneven or soft ground. As an added bonus, it\u2019s lightweight, so you shouldn\u2019t struggle to carry it around the garden.<\/p>

The bendy tripod-shape looks unique, too, so when it’s not in use then it’ll still look great in the garden. This ladder is available in a range of sizes: 2m, 3m and 3.6m and is said to be resistant to rust and corrosion.<\/p>
