Hi all, has anyone got any recommendations for a good value for money irrigation system for hanging baskets and containers? I'm thinking of the type that use microbore tubing and drippers. It would be for about four or five hanging baskets plus a few tomatoes etc. I was thinking this might be a good time of year to get it, as the main watering season comes to an end.

    I have five large hanging baskets across the front of the house . I did think about irrigation.but all the pipes were black and the front of the hose is white. I decided that I didn't want a black very visible tube across the front 365 days a year just to save me a little time. So instead invested in easy fill large hanging baskets with built in water reservoirs.This does not answer your question,but in my research ebay came out tops .

    Ah actually that was another question of mine, whether you could get white microbore pipes.
