Gilmour 5/8-inch x 50' Weeper Soaker Hose for Garden Beds, Drip Irrigation, Lawns

Overview

The Gilmour 5/8-inch x 50' round weeper soaker hose offers a gentle, even soak that draws water directly into the soil. Designed for new plantings, shrubs, raised beds, and borders, it helps you water where it matters most—at the root zone—without flooding the surface or creating puddles. The result is a calm, consistent delivery that can support healthy growth while reducing water waste over time.

Built for flexibility and durability, this hose blends ease of use with a thoughtful water delivery approach. Its soft, porous design lets water weep through thousands of tiny pores, delivering moisture gradually and evenly. Whether you install it above ground or bury it for a cleaner garden bed, the hose adapts to your layout and your plants’ needs.

How it works

Water seeps slowly from the permeable surface, targeting the soil near plant roots. This steady flow helps minimize surface runoff and evaporation, which can be especially beneficial during warmer seasons or in windy environments. The result is a more efficient irrigation method that supports consistent soil moisture and plant access to water when roots demand it most.
