Burgon & Ball Waterfall Watering Can 5L | British Racing Green

There's a knack to watering that no amount of enthusiasm can replace, and this can does half the work for you. Five litres in galvanised steel with a powder coated finish, it's built to the size that actually makes sense on an allotment: enough for a proper drink round the beds, not so much you're wrestling it back to the tap. The single-handed design means no twisting your back to tip it, and there's a clever bit of physics at play too. As the can empties, gravity does the heavy lifting, letting the handle slip gently through your fingers so it tips further the lighter it gets. The rose is removable and screws on and off in seconds, so you can switch between a fine shower for seedlings and a rapid pour for thirstier, established plants. Finished with a metal Burgon & Ball seal on top, because a good watering can should look like it means business.
