Lidl’s Parkside Plant Watering Spikes are tiny devices which can be easily planted in the soil, through its ergonomic stand.
All you need to do is fill the container and choose from one of the device’s eight settings.
The settings range from one, which gives a slow release of water, and eight, which allows water to flow freely.
Continuous watering whilst you’re away
Over time, the devices dribble water into the ground – allowing for a continuous irrigation of your plants.
They can be used indoors and outdoors too and have a capacity of 0.5L, which is roughly equivalent to a store-bought bottle of water.
The watering spikes also come in green, allowing them to easily blend in with your lawn.
The clever creations cost just £1.99 and will be available from July 6.
