All New Extra Large 20 Gallon Tree Watering Ring/Bag(2 Pack),Deep Root&Slow Release&Automatic Drip Irrigation Watering System, Low-Profile Great for Multi-Trunk Newly Planted Small Trees and Shrubs

These worked well last spring and held up nicely in the garage over winter. I'm using them for the season 2 here in Ga. We are experiencing a bad drought and I sure don't want my new holly trees dying bc of it.

These tree rings worked great, during the hot weather this summer. Kept my trees alive.

As a retired dairy farmer, I appreciate efficient watering systems. These 20-gallon bags are great! I purchased two and they've transformed my tree care routine, saving considerable time compared to hand watering. The slow-release system works perfectly on level ground, though they don't empty fully on slopes. Minor considerations: the fill opening can soften in hot weather, requiring gentle reshaping, and the brown color fades quickly in sun. Occasional clogging happens but easily resolves with hose back-flushing. The filler cap lacks a check valve, so water can spill when uncapped, but this is manageable. Great value for the price and performance delivered. Would definitely purchase again - highly recommended for anyone serious about proper tree establishment

Did not work, water did not drip out, ran out within a day, ground mildewed under it.

Great because it has a low profile. That's the end of my positive comments. It's... okay., but faded in the sun after a few days. It's hard to fill. It's fragile. It seems as if the seams will split easily if care not taken care of and will surely be the eventual failure point. Feels puncture prone, though... so far so good. IMPORTANT NOTE: does NOT drain around the entire lower surface.... not a bunch of tiny perforations on the lower surface. It has only two (2) drain valves that are bulky and are in the middle (not the edge) and you end up with the bags only draining partially (~80%)... ESPECIALLY if it's on a mounded (even a little) tree. If I could give 2.5 starts I would.

It appears the manufacturer has fixed the problem with the size of the inflation hole--it's plenty big to fit a standard hose. The material is also durable; good quality and construction. Because few terrains are even, I suggest putting the inflation hole at the top of an incline so gravity pulls the water toward the two release valves at the side at the same rate. Bag will need to be massaged to release the water that collects at the bottom, but on even surfaces, the water release lasted about a day.

I am surprised that this only has 3.9 stars overall. I gave it five stars and would give it even a sixth star if I could. These are just as described. They do hold 20 gallons of water, but I am sure I am not filling them all the way. There is a hole to put in a stake or something to keep it from blowing away, but it does not come with that particular stake or stick. I have not had a problem with them blowing away, but I imagine they could in very strong winds if they are empty. These are a game changer for us because we bought 16 of them and it saves us more than one hour of watering by hand. I highly recommend these, and I would buy them again.

Same problems everyone else has listed. These stink on anything that isn’t flat ground, and the drain holes have to be oriented just right or the water just collects. Lastly, and my biggest problem with them, is that the filling holes are too big to hold a hose, so you have to sit there and hold the end with the filling hole up in the air so all the water doesn’t just gurgle right back out of the bag, AND they don’t offer a garden hose adapter OR indicate the specific size of the hole or its thread style so you can try to source one on your own. Put your money into some other tree hydration solution.
