It almost looks like a cartoon watering can because of the size of the rose...very oversized. This lets you hit a whole lot more plants. It holds 9 liters (about 2 gallons) of water. It is a substantial, last forever, heavy duty hot dipped galvanized steel. It is heavy duty and heavy. This watering can is to be passed down and down and down. It will last forever.Even though it is very heavy, our flat rate $6.75 still applies.
