I was looking thru Kawasumi's "The Secret Techniques of Bonsai" and really admired the watering can he has pictured on page 96 (see attached image). It's small (probably less than 1 gal.), maybe stainless steel, has a long, straight spout (looks to be over 2' long), and has a straight-shot watering head (rather than the up-and-over versions typical of Haws cans and the like). It would be perfect for precision watering of my smaller bonsai, esp. those who don't like to get their leaves wet in the sun.
Frankly, I've never seen anything like this in any garden centers in my area. Could someone clue me in to where I could find a watering can like this, or something similar?
The ones at bonsaimonk.com and the top of dallasbonsai.com's list (WC75, 76, & 92) seem like what I'm looking for, though I'd be perfectly happy with a (cheaper) plastic can of the same design.
BTW, is there a name for that kind of spout? (It would make looking a bit easier.)
