Is there an irrigation system that easily water plants on a patio?
There are micorirrigation systems that can water your containers. I think Lowes and other places sell them. They consist of 3/4″ plastic hose and emmiters and connecting peices. You can set up a timer and never worry about watering again. It will be hard to hide the hose if you place the containers in the middle of the patio. Just be aware that it’s very easy to over water succulents and trees. You’ll have to monitor the moisture level for a few weeks before you can leave it alone. An alternative would be to use plants with low water requirements (like succulents and trees), use mulch on the soil surface and use a soil mix that holds water well (some mixes have a new jell like additive that holds a lot of water). If your patio is exposed to rain, then you might not have to water. Otherwise, I think if you could go for a week wit
