Sonia set up the hoses with several double nozzle attachments and new sprinkler heads. Tim asked for some pictures so here they are.
In the picture above I have brightened two ellipses to show the two places where the attachments split the hose into two. If you click on the picture it will blow up so you can see these easier. The first attachment (ellipse in the middle of playground) is at the end of the black hose which leads to the faucet. The second is in the foreground and you can see that there are two green hoses attached to the end of this black section. A third splitter can't be seen in this picture, but it's attached to the end of the pink hose (below).
The black hose is the shorter one. It can reach both ends of the garden, the western end on Houston and the shady garden on Mangin next to the school building. Only the pink hose can reach the middle of the garden at the corner of Mangin and Houston.
Most of the sprinkler heads look like this one.
They can be placed with the holes facing up so they work as sprinklers,
or facing down so that the water drips into the container. If you turn on the faucet with only a 1/4 turn the water flows gently enough to do this.
This nozzle has a stake on the bottom so that you can secure it in the dirt.
There are enough attachments to have 6 sprinklers going at one time. Unfortunately 6 was too discombobulating for me, but 4 was perfect.
