Watering can

A watering can is a portable container, usually with a handle and a spout, used to hand water plants. The capacity of the container can be anywhere from 0.5 to 10 L (1 pt to 2.5 gal). It can be made out of eather metal, ceramic or plastic.

At the end of the spout, a long tube originating at the bottom of the container, you can place a 'rose' to break up the stream of water into droplets so you do not wash away the soil.

The term "watering can" first appeared in 1692, before then it was known as a "watering pot".

In 1885 the "Haws" watering can was patented by John Haw. He replaced the top mounted handle with a single round handle at the rear.
