Anyone with experience of the Hozelock system?

I have an outside tap at the back of the house and 3 half baskets at the
front. To avoid a run of the larger (13mm?) pipe I would like to do
most of the run in the narrower pipe which, although it is black, I
could hide more easily against the join between the white soffit and the
brick wall.

I am havig problems locating the appropriate kits in garden centres as
apparently Hozelock are revising their product range and the garden
centres only have what is left of the old range. Timing is important as
this is meant to be a Christmas present from my daughter.

The notes I have for my Hozelock system say that "No one length
of micro tube should be more than 15 m long".

I don't know how big your house is, but that looks reasonably
hopeful. The small drippers are self-regulating, and three
baskets probably won't need a great flow. In any case, just
adjust the watering period as required.

Other manufacturers are available (just look on line) and the
pipe sizes are the same, so you could put together your own
system from available parts.
