Sprayer that doesn't need a hose $6.93
I am sure many of you have one of these already, but for me it is new
. I knew there was something like this, but had never seen it.I was thinking of buying an end hose sprayer; a good alternative to an expensive bonsai watering can. I bought this at homedepot today for $6.93 + tax. Just use the handle on the top to pump a little pressure in your sprayer tank, and mist-away!. In this case, to spray the whole contents of this sprayer you have to pump it about 3 times in between sprayings; but it doesn't really take that much energy. The volume of the container is 1.8 liters (2.5 pints) or a little more than a quarter (1/4) of gallon. There was a 1 gallon one, but I don't have that many bonsai. |

It is also useful to have something like this when bringing trees to a show, being easily hidden beneath the show table and useful for spot watering. Also useful for keeping roots moist during a demo or repotting. I keep one in my greenhouse for the tropicals, although more often I just use a hose end sprayer when it's not very chilly.

My husband and I have the same one. It is quite useful for us---we live in an apartment and all the trees are on a south-facing balcony. Since we don't have access to a hose, this sprayer is invaluable.
