As the hotter weather kicks in, shoppers turn to their favourite retailers for advice on irrigation for the home garden.
One of the key items for successful growing is The Gardener Weeper Soak Hose. Designed to irrigate plants without wasting water, the hose allows water to seep out of tiny pores along its length. This useful product doesn’t spray water everywhere! Instead, it allows a water flow rate that’s ideal for the ground and plants to absorb, providing the correct moisture content. The water goes right to the root zone with very low water pressure.
Retailers enjoy promoting this product because it can work across many garden layouts; single hedges, vege gardens, rows of border hedges and so on. With two lengths, 15m or 30m, gardeners have the flexibility to connect extra lengths to suit. Fittings are all included and the wet-strip is generous at 400mm.
Today’s consumer is focused on sustainability and this sturdy hose is made from recycled rubber. It is also kind on water usage, with its slow and targeted seepage. These features are not lost on shoppers as they look for environmentally-friendly products to use at home.

PrimeHort customer, Oderings Garden Centres, recently took the opportunity to have a little fun with their instore display by creating a Christmas Tree with the hoses! Certainly a great way to grab attention and get the tills ringing.
“We regularly order the Soaker Hose because our customers love it. Above ground or below it’s an easy, fast to install product. Training from PrimeHort each year to upskill our staff on the product works wonders for sales. All in all, it’s a hot seller in our irrigation offering instore.” – Nicola McKee, Oderings Garden Centres
