A hedge trimmer is a gardening tool used to shape, cut, or maintain hedges, shrubs, and bushes. It has sharp blades that move back and forth to trim branches and leaves quickly and evenly. Hedge trimmers can be powered by electricity, batteries, or fuel, while some are manual and operated by hand. They are useful for keeping hedges neat and well-shaped and for clearing overgrown plants. Different sizes and designs are available depending on the type of plants being trimmed.
