As gardens begin to come back to life in spring, attention often turns to planting, layout and how outdoor spaces will be used in the months ahead. But one of the most important - and often overlooked - elements of a well-functioning garden is irrigation.

Spring is in full swing. Gardens have softened, planting is lifting, and outdoor spaces are beginning to feel alive again, shifting from something observed to something truly lived in.
