The HT-Calla harvester can be used to harvest a variety of crops. Its motorized hedge trimmer cuts the crop near ground level.
As its name suggests, the HT-Calla was originally built for pruning calla & canna lilies near ground level after their flowering season. The geometry of the HT-Cala overcomes the problem of cutting thick stemmed plants.
General trimming: pruning low crops or shrubs to height
Herb harvesting: will straddle the row, cutting the crop to a uniform height
Clean-up: cutting rank grass or surplus vegetation

The HT-Cress harvester has been specifically developed for the harvesting of water cress. It can even be used while overhead sprinklers are activated.
In use, the operator typically straddles the row and nudges the harvester forward with his body, so leaving hands free. As the watercress is cut it moves up the conveyor, where the operator gathers the crop into bundles and packs them into a collection bin.
There is a top fence across the conveyor to bunch the crop if the operator can’t keep up. Although the HT-Cress is supplied with crop pick up fingers, operators may prefer to go up each row ‘heaping’ up the sides with a broom before harvesting. This seems to work well.

The HT-Nursery (HT-NU) was originally manufactured for use in plant nurseries for topping seedlings (i.e. pine). However, it has found many other uses and can harvest a wide range of crops such as Mints, Lemon Verbena, Basil, Lemon Thyme, Melissa, Sage, Oregano, Stinging Nettle, Rosemary, Passion Flower, Lemon Balm, Peppermint, Spearmint, Marjoram, Savory, French Tarragon etc. It can also be used for taking cuttings for growing-on.
The power head is adjusted to the cutting height required. The operator pushes the harvester forward and the power head cuts and blows the cuttings into a collection bag. The bag has a quick release frame fitted to it so when full, the frame can easily be lifted off the harvester and emptied into a bin, trailer or other bulk storage.
Available in two models: the base model with a 1200mm cutting width and a wider 1600mm cutting width model (see the ‘Options’ tab for more detail).
- Adjustable cutter height from 180 to 865mm above ground level (standard cutting from ground to higher is an option)
- 1200 or 1600mm cutting widths (see ‘Options’ tab for pricing)
- Lightweight frame, zinc plated for durability
- Easily used by one operator who can walk behind the harvester or offset in a wheel track
- The HT-Nursery will straddle the crop and the operator can also walk in a wheel track
- Hence no plant damage occurs allowing a second crop to grow
- Wheels can easily be removed allowing compact storage or transporting in a vehicle. The frame folds in half forming a compact triangular shape
- Cutting height (cutter bar above wheel ground level): 180mm to 865mm in 12.5mm increments (or as ordered)
- Wheel drive: none
- Engine: Husqvarna Zenoah G4K-D 41.5cc air cooled 2-stroke gasoline engine
