Thanks. However, is whirling type suitable for tight spaces?


A soaker hose (or drip hose) works well in tight places. These are
inexpensive too. I've had bad luck with Melnor, Gardenia and Gilmour.
A "rainbird" kind can shoot in a pie-shape pattern and at a long
distance. A hose timer can reduce water waste and runoff.

Do you have any experience with these (oscillating types from Nelson,
Melnor, Gardenia, and Gilmour):

or the following fountain type (though it has 8 settings):

Appreciate all feedback.
