This handy box contains the Flopro Beds & Borders - Watering and Irrigation Kit. Conveniently packaged, simple and easy to use with a quick set up time, this kit is perfect for busy gardeners. Easily hooked up to a timer to water while you're away (available separately), this kit also benefits you by saving up to 70% of the water normally used when watering by hand. No scissors or tools are required, and the water is directed straight to the roots of the plants.
