Lawnaconda

Garden hoses that look and act like snakes

Select your snake of preference, then choose the length of hose required. All hoses are custom printed in colours and patterns to closely match that of your snake of choice.

When fully extended, the pressure of the water inflates the hose slightly more in the middle than at both ends so that its profile also resembles that of a real snake.

Use the Stiff Necked Cobra version as a static sprinkler if you are too lazy to wrestle with the Garden Python.

As a bonus, Lawnaconda scares away intruders when left out uncoiled.

Delux option has night reflector eyes, and can be set to twitch about randomly whilst watering the lawn unattended.
