This Gilmour Flat Soaker Hose 50' flexible soaker hose gets water right where you want it: at the roots. Water seeps out of all sides of the black fabric jacket and directly into the soil, for waste-free watering in garden beds and other tight spaces. Flat design makes it a breeze to roll up and store for next season. Capable of snaking through rows of new seedlings or under mature plantings for efficient, deep watering. Direct and gentle watering, above or below ground.
