tree and shrub transplant shock<br />
Subsurface deep root watering and<br />
aeration ensures tree health and promotes<br />
accelerated growth<br />
Highest efficiency solution for tree irrigation<br />
- up to 94% distribution uniformity with<br />
minimal wind, evaporation, or edge control<br />
losses<br />
FEATURES<br />
• Installation and Maintenance<br />
- Save time and assembly labour versus<br />
homemade systems because the system<br />
comes with pre-installed Rain Bird 1401<br />
