Our these gloves good for working in the garden with rose bushes?

I bought them to work in the pond as they are waterproof, but I think that they are tough enough to work in the rose bushes! That's a great idea; I may try it myself.

Honestly don't know. Thy are fantastic for reaching into the pool in the dead of winter. They are really long. I think really touch rose thorns willGo through them .

Yes and No. Yes, I'd feel comfortable using them with cactus for the most part. They are fairly cut and puncture resistant. However, as with many work gloves, you may find the smallest spines have a way of penetrating. You won't notice it while your working, but your hands feel extremely itchy later. I would suggest wearing a pair of vinyl gloves beneath these when working with cactus.

Regular garden gloves will be fine. As for repotting, it really depends on what kind of cactus is shipped. In my shipment some are still in small 4" pots, while others have had to go into 8 - 10" pots. I can say that all the ones I received were very healthy and are still doing well.

probably not. They are glittery which I did not know until I got them so that was pretty disappointing. And glittery gloves tend to feel coarser

Yes, the gloves are designed to protect your hands from cuts. They work well for my husband.

If you are talking about a leather work glove, the answer would be no. The grip is substantial but not big enough for thick gloves. It would work with rubber gloves or thin gardening gloves.

I would think so. I bought them to wear so my hands wouldn't come in direct contact w/rubber or plastics. The gloves are thin enough that you can easily move your fingers but heavy enough to protect transfer of allergens.

I would think so. I bought them because at my age anything that even touches my forearms brings blood. I have a lot of landscaping trimming bushes etc and so far not a scratch. I have a bougenvilla that has thousands of tiny needle thorns on it-they do not protect from those. I live in the Houston TX area and they are very hot to wear in this hot & humid climate but worth it. I hope this helps

I don't see why not. They are excellent and have served me well. I have been depolyed and seen a number of different gloves used. This is very good quailty and well worth the price.

If you are careful about how you grab the black berry cane you can use them just as if it were a rose. Blackberries and roses are related plants, BUT, if you are doing a major tear out of the bushes the thorns can pierce thru the glove part. I use mine for "pruning" my roses and preventing my neighbors wild black berries from coming over our fence, but it is selected cutting. If I were doing a tear out I would either slip a pair of heavy duty gloves over the hands of these or purchase a thicker pair of gloves. The gauntlet has done a very good job of protecting my arms when I reach inside of a bush. If you are careful about how you grab the black berry cane you can use them just as if it were a rose.

They do have some trim that has flowers. These are great gloves. I use them when trimming all my roses

Hard to say. You will probably be better off with rubber garden gloves or those leather ones construction guys wear.

I would say so. They're really waterproof. The only inconvenient is that if they're getting wet inside they'll stay wet for a long time. I think you can wear a pair of thinner gloves underneath if you often have to take the hand out of the glove.

I normally would go with a medium glove, but the large is fine, as I did not want skin tight garden gloves. Plenty of room for the fingers, but am still able to grip pruners, etc., without any problem and still pick up cut pieces of plants from the ground. Gauntlet extends nearly to my elbow, which is what I wanted.

These are plastic so I think they're best suited for leaves, brush, especially thorny brush. Thorns and stickers can go through gloves, and you can pick up more debris than with your hands

I don't think so. The back of the gloves are not waterproof. They are a stretchy material. And I don't think the rubberized side is tough enough to deflect needles, broken glass, or other things you might encounter in a trash pick up. These are great gardening gloves, but I think you need something more industrial.
