<p>A horticultural spreader (1) for distributing particulate matter comprising a handle assembly (10), a container (20) for the particulate matter and having an opening (21), and a distribution chute (30) adapted for mounting to the handle assembly, wherein the distribution chute has one or more elongate webs (38) which divide its interior into a plurality of separate channels (38a, 38b) is described. Also described is a horticultural spreader (1) for distributing particulate matter comprising a handle assembly (10), a container (20) for the particulate matter and having an opening (21), and a distribution chute (30) adapted for mounting to the handle assembly, wherein proximate the outlet end (34) of the distribution chute there is provided a lip (40) having a convex formation (41) provided on an upper surface thereof. The separate channels and lip ensure an even spread of particulate material is maintained when the horticultural spreader is tilted to one side during use, and that the particulate matter exiting the spreader is scattered evenly and widely over the lip in a divergent manner.</p> |
