Category overview

Watering

Cans, hose fittings, drip lines and water butts that deliver the right amount of water to the right place.

Consistent watering matters more than frequent watering. A long-reach rose on a can, a simple drip line on a timer, or a water butt plumbed to a downpipe all help you water deeply, at the roots, and waste less to evaporation and run-off.

What this category includes

Watering cans

A balanced can with interchangeable roses for seedlings and pots.

Hoses & fittings

Kink-resistant hose with quick-connect couplings and a lance.

Drip & timers

Low-pressure drip lines on a tap timer for hands-off watering.

Water butts

Rainwater storage plumbed to a downpipe for dry weeks.

How to choose

  • A fine rose waters seedlings without washing them out.
  • Drip lines on a timer water at the roots and cut waste.
  • A water butt on a downpipe stores free rainwater for dry spells.
  • Water deeply and less often to encourage deep roots.
