Greenwell watersavers are ideal for looking after newly planted specimen trees.

As our hunger for ‘instant’, more mature gardens develops, garden architects and landscape designers are including larger, more mature specimen trees within their planting schemes. These larger planted trees give make a new garden design look mature, almost instantly.

Careful planting of a mature tree is essential to its survival. Ensuring the soil conditions are right, its aspect is perfect and providing the correct nutrients to ensure it gets a great start.

Regular watering is really important to provide the stress-free environment for a newly planted specimen tree or shrub to thrive. Buy Irrigation’s GreenWell water reservoir allows you to do this more effectively and efficiently, by providing a quick and inexpensive method to apply concentrated water to trees and shrubs.

Greenwell is a water-retaining reservoir that is easily installed around the base of the tree. When watering the tree, the Greenwell reservoir is filled, so concentrating the water to the all-important plant root zone and preventing water run-off.

Developed in Australia, the Greenwell watersaver has been awarded the Smart Approved Watermark, Australia’s water conservation label for products which help save water: http://www.smartwatermark.info

The Greenwell watersaver is installed simply (and very speedily!). The Greenwell unit holds 26 litres of water, and can be moved from tree to tree by unzipping the watertight seal. Greenwell is ideally suited to trees positioned on sloping sites.

Greenwell watersaver reservoirs are great for:

1. Keeping grass away from tree trunks, preventing damage to the tree from mowers or strimmers.

2. Retaining mulches placed near the base of the specimen tree.

3. Ensuring that applied fertilizer gets directly to the tree root zone, with as little wastage as possible.

Greenwell is also great for commercial landscape schemes and local authority planting.

The Greenwell watersaver can also be used with Buy Irrigation’s Deep Drip watering stakes, further enhancing the efficiency of watering as the water is not only retained around the root zone surface, it is fed directly to the roots via the deep drip stakes.

Save your trees (and save the expense of having to plant new ones)!

Buy Irrigation: Deep drip tree watering

Buy Irrigation: Deep drip tree watering is simple and effective.

Attention all Landscapers/Garden Designers and buyers of expensive trees and shrubs!
We have just introduced a great product into our irrigation range. Do you, or your clients, invest large sums of money on planting high quality trees? If the anwer’s ‘yes’, then a small investment in these Deep Drip tree watering stakes will pay dividends – now and in the future.

Buy Irrigation: Deep drip tree watering stakes are available in 3 sizes for all sizes of tree.

Deep Drip tree watering stakes help you to water and fertilize your trees, shrubs and plants at the root, where it really counts. The Deep Drip tree and plant watering system saturates the ground allowing the roots to grow deep and strong. Water goes where it is needed, at the root. The soil is better aerated with oxygen, and your trees avoid horizontal growth of their roots, which results in exposed roots.

Deep Drip tree watering stakes also assist water conservation.  The tree watering stake takes water immediately, deep underground, resulting in shorter watering periods. That means little wastage. So that the tree watering you do is both responsible and effective.

Buy Irrigation: Deep drip tree watering stakes are suitable for every size of tree.

The Deep Drip System is designed to work with a garden hose, flood irrigation, with a dripper, and/or in conjunction with your automatic watering system. A standard micro tube fits through the cap of the Deep Drip Stake. Liquid Fertilizer can also be added into the shaft of the stake to direct nutrients to the root zone.

The stakes are constructed of recyclable ABS plastic providing a long lasting and strong product. Multiple holes in the bottom half of the stake, covered by a mesh filter, allow water to flow out and keeps dirt from getting in and clogging the tube. The UV-protected cap acts as a protective, reinforced cover when hammering the tree irrigation stake into the ground. It also keeps rocks and leaves from entering the shaft of the stake and holds the micro tube securely in place. The cap protects the emitter head from squirrels and other animals.

Positioning the deep drip tree watering stake is fast and simple.

Buy Irrigation recommend positioning the tree watering stake beneath the outer edge of the tree’s canopy. With two holes at the top of the upper shaft, you can remove and replace the unit. Just insert a screwdriver in the holes, gently twist left and right, then pull up. The Deep Drip tree watering system is incredibly easy to use. Trees and shrubs are more effectively watered, deep at the roots where it matters.

The RHS recommend planting trees between October and April. The inclusion of a Deep Drip tree watering stake will assist in maintaining the health of the tree during those critical early stages of growth.

See the RHS page about planting new trees for further planting information
