The present invention provides a binding machine for gardening which can prevent the drawing failure of a tape even when operated by an operator who is unfamiliar with the binding machine for gardening. Specifically, the binding machine for gardening (10) comprises: a main handle (11) which is capable of drawing out a tape (60) from a front end portion (11a)； a clincher arm (30) which is attached rotatably with respect to the main handle (11)； and a tape gripping apparatus (35) which is attached at a front end portion (30a) of the clincher arm (30). The binding machine for gardening binds an object (S) to be bound by alternately executing a gripping operation and a binding operation, and further comprises a movement regulation means which regulates a rotation of the clincher arm (30) in a closing direction from a predetermined position at the time of the gripping operation.
