Product Information
Full details
The Ambassador Oval Galvanised Watering Can is designed for dedicated gardeners who prioritize longevity and precise plant hydration. Its heavy-duty steel construction makes it a reliable tool for long-term outdoor use, providing a steady and gentle flow thanks to the integrated brass rose. While its robust build ensures durability, users should be aware that its metallic construction is heavier than plastic alternatives when fully filled, which may impact portability for some gardeners.

FAQs
Is the rose removable?
Yes, the brass rose is detachable, allowing you to switch between a directed stream or a fine spray.
Can this can be left outside year-round?
While it is galvanised for protection, we recommend storing it indoors during winter to preserve the finish.
How much water does it hold?
The Ambassador Oval Watering Can is sized for standard garden tasks, offering an optimal balance between water capacity and weight.
Will the metal rust?
The galvanised coating provides excellent rust resistance; however, consistent exposure to standing water and corrosive elements should be avoided.
Is it safe to use for indoor plants?
Yes, its controlled flow and elegant design make it an excellent choice for indoor container gardening.
Troubleshooting
Water flow from the rose is uneven or blocked
Unscrew the brass rose and rinse it from the inside out to remove any soil or lime scale deposits.
Light surface oxidation appearing on the steel
Clean the area with a soft cloth and a mild soap solution, then ensure the can is completely dried after use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Minimal setup is required as the unit comes fully assembled. To maintain the life of your watering can, it is recommended to drain excess water after each use to prevent any potential sediment buildup in the spout or rose. While galvanised steel is rust-resistant, wiping the exterior down with a soft, dry cloth periodically will keep the silver finish looking its best. Store the can in a shed or garage during winter months to protect the metal from extreme freeze-thaw cycles. If the brass rose becomes clogged with debris, unscrew it gently, rinse with warm water, and clear the holes before reattaching.
