A watering system that has first and second upright supports, a plurality of bendable water conduits and substantially rigid water channels and a first spray head is disclosed. Each of the first and second upright supports have substantially laterally oriented brackets dimensioned to releasably hold objects having a first outer diameter, including the bendable water conduits and substantially rigid water channels. The substantially rigid water channels each have a central body and left and right hose barbs in fluid relationship to one another through the central body. The central body has an aperture dimensioned to receive and mechanically engage the insertion end of the first spray head. The first spray head has a spray jet with a first water flow rate. The system may further include second and third spray heads with second and third water flow rates each different from each other and the first water flow rate. The bendable water conduits are preferrably formed from material capable of bending to an acute internal angle without breaking and without substantial kinking. Preferrably, the first upright supports are ornamentally camouflaged and may appear to be a picket fence with each first upright support being formed to allow interconnection of the upright supports one to another to allow flexibility.

What is claimed is: 1. A watering system comprising: a first spray head, the first spray head having an insertion end and a spray jet, the spray jet having a first water flow rate; a first bendable water conduit, the bendable water conduit having a first outer diameter and a conduit inner diameter;
What is claimed is: 1. A watering system comprising: a first spray head, the first spray head having an insertion end and a spray jet, the spray jet having a first water flow rate; a first bendable water conduit, the bendable water conduit having a first outer diameter and a conduit inner diameter; a first substantially rigid water channel having a central body, a left hose barb and a right hose barb, where the left and right hose barbs are in fluid relationship to one another through the central body, each of the left and right hose barbs have an outer diameter that increases over a portion thereof to at least a diameter substantially equal to the conduit inner diameter, the central body having the first outer diameter, the central body further having an aperture dimensioned to receive and mechanically engage the insertion end of the first spray head; a first upright support having a substantially laterally oriented bracket associated therewith, the lateral bracket being dimensioned to releasably hold objects having the first outer diameter; a second spray head, the second spray head having an insertion end and a spray jet, the spray jet having a second water flow rate; a second bendable water conduit, the second bendable water conduit having the first outer diameter and the conduit inner diameter; a second substantially rigid water channel having a central body, a left hose barb and a right hose barb, where the left and right hose barbs are in fluid relationship to one another through the central body, each of the left and right hose barbs have an outer diameter that increases over a portion thereof to at least a diameter substantially equal to the conduit inner diameter, the central body having the first outer diameter, the central body further having an aperture dimensioned to receive and mechanically engage the insertion end of the first spray head; a second upright support having a substantially laterally oriented bracket associated therewith, the lateral bracket being dimensioned to releasably hold objects having the first outer diameter; first and second means for substantially camouflaging the first and the second bendable water conduit, the first and the second substantially rigid water channel and the first and the second upright support from casual observers viewing the watering system from the front side thereof wherein the first and second camouflaging means have the ornamental appearance of a picket fence; the first and second camouflaging means have apertured mating flanges; and a stake passing through each flange aperture and into a supporting surface. 2. The watering system of claim 1 wherein the first and second water flow rates are different. 3. The watering system of claim 1 further including a second spray head, the second spray head having an insertion end and a spray jet, the second spray jet having a second water flow rate different from the first water flow rate, the insertion ends of the first and second spray heads being substantially the same to facilitate interchangeability of the first and second spray heads. 4. The watering system of claim 3 further including a third spray head, the third spray head having an insertion end and a spray jet, the third spray jet having a third water flow rate different from both the first and second water flow rates, the insertion ends of the first, second and third spray heads being substantially the same to facilitate interchangeability of the first, second and third spray heads. 5. The watering system of claim 4 wherein the first, second and third spray rates are selected to provide a gallons per hour generally believed desirable for sand, silt and clay soil types, respectively. 6. The watering system of claim 1 wherein the first bendable water conduit is formed from material capable of bending to an acute internal angle without breaking and without substantial kinking. 7. A watering system comprising: a first spray head, the first spray head having an insertion end and a spray jet, the spray jet having a first water flow rate; a first bendable water conduit, the bendable water conduit having a first outer diameter and a conduit inner diameter; a first substantially rigid water channel having a central body, a left hose barb and a right hose barb, where the left and right hose barbs are in fluid relationship to one another through the central body, each of the left and right hose barbs have an outer diameter that increases over a portion thereof to at least a diameter substantially equal to the conduit inner diameter, the central body having the first outer diameter, the central body further having an aperture dimensioned to receive and mechanically engage the insertion end of the first spray head; a first upright support having a substantially laterally oriented bracket associated therewith, the lateral bracket being dimensioned to releasably hold objects having the first outer diameter; means for substantially camouflaging at the first bendable water conduit, the first substantially rigid water channel and the first upright support from casual observers viewing the watering system from the front side thereof, wherein the means for substantially camouflaging has the ornamental appearance of a picket fence; a second upright support having a substantially laterally oriented bracket associated therewith, the lateral bracket being dimensioned to releasably hold objects having the first outer diameter, the second upright support including an L bracket and a bracket sled, wherein the L bracket has a substantially vertical channel for slidably receiving the bracket sled therein and the bracket sled has on its front face the substantially laterally oriented bracket, the second upright support further includes means for substantially fixing the bracket sled within the substantially vertical channel; a second spray head, the second spray head having an insertion end and a spray jet, the spray jet having a second water flow rate; a second bendable water conduit, the second bendable water conduit having the first outer diameter and the conduit inner diameter; and a second substantially rigid water channel having a central body, a left hose barb and a right hose barb, where the left and right hose barbs are in fluid relationship to one another through the central body, each of the left and right hose barbs have an outer diameter that increases over a portion thereof to at least a diameter substantially equal to the conduit inner diameter, the central body having the first outer diameter, the central body further having an aperture dimensioned to receive and mechanically engage the insertion end of the first spray head. 8. The watering system of claim 7 wherein the first L bracket has a recess dimensioned to receive a rear lip of a landscape brick. 9. The watering system of claim 7 wherein the first and second flow rates are different. 10.
