Dripper Systems for Gardens

Drip irrigation is the most efficient watering method around, proving that low flow is the way to go. Hardly any water is wasted through wind, evaporation, run-off or overspray.

Did you know that it can take 15 minutes to deliver just one litre of water to the soil with drip irrigation, compared to five seconds when delivering one litre by hand?

By slowly dripping water into the soil at the base of plants, water is released at a rate that's easy to absorb, only where it's needed. After all, why water the weeds?

Drip irrigation also reduces the risk of erosion, soil compaction and insect and fungal problems in plants. It's great for all garden areas

Benefits of drip irrigation:
- uses flexible piping that is easily laid and suitable for most environments, including ornamental gardens
- ideal for windy areas as the water goes directly to plants roots
- great for everything from plants on slopes to vegetable gardens
- suits all soil types
- suits all plant types

Plug in drippers come in many styles of both fixed and adjustable. Some drippers come mounted on a small stake, some are poly pipe with drip emitters built in at regular spacings and some are suitable for on ground or under mulch installation.

Drip irrigation is a great way to save you valuable time, water and money.
