soaker hoses
Weeping garden tubes
Soaker hoses are garden hoses with tiny perforations along their length that allow water to seep out slowly and soak the soil.
They deliver water directly to plant roots rather than spraying it, reducing evaporation and waste.
Gardeners snake them through beds and often bury them under mulch: I laid soaker hoses around the tomatoes.
