Watering & Irrigation Saving water easily


The new Gardena smart Sensor enables efficient irrigation in the garden. It determines soil moisture and temperature and adjusts the scheduled automatic irrigation in the smart system. Irrigation is only carried out as and when necessary, preventing excessive watering. This results in healthier plants and a richer harvest.


Thanks to the wireless connection, it can be used anywhere – in a flower pot, in a flower bed, in a vegetable patch or in the lawn. Automatic irrigation is particularly efficient with the new Gardena smart Sensor. It measures the soil temperature and soil moisture precisely where these factors are important – at the roots. Thanks to its large measuring range, the sensor can be placed in deeper areas of the lawn, flower bed or vegetable patch, as well as less deep in flower pots. Combined with the smart Water Control or smart Irrigation Control from the Gardena smart system, the smart Sensor enables needs-based and efficient watering of plants. This saves water when used in conjunction with a drip irrigation system and contributes to optimal plant growth. Because every drop counts. As a central element of the Gardena smart system, the smart Sensor


wirelessly communicates the current status data directly to the heart of a networked garden, the Gardena smart Gateway. As soon as the sensor measurement system registers that the soil is moist enough, the next planned watering is simply skipped. All smart products can be operated individually via the app at any time and from anywhere with just a tip of a finger.

out of watering Always at the cutting edge of gardening solutions, Westland is launching Smartflo into the market, the first hose that ‘unkinks’ itself, reduces the risk of leaks and is built to last.


A new product addition to the Flopro range for 2021, the Smartflo hose provides a solution to the two main challenges consumers face with traditional hoses – kinks and leaks. Made from thermo elastomer technology, the Smartflo hose is flat


when not in use, but expands as water flows through it. This expandable material allows the hose to effectively remove kinks by itself as water passes through. It also minimises the amount of water left within the hose as it decompresses after use, removing the risk of leaks and internal damage.


Marloes Rots, Flopro Brand Manager, says: “Consumers are often frustrated by garden hoses that develop kinks, leaks or break easily. Available in 20m, 30m and 40m, the Smartflo hose breaks new ground in hosepipe technology given its ability to expand and deflate - and is so durable that we offer a 30-year guarantee with the product.”
