Household drains: Indispensable helpers in everyday life
Watering cans are essential for supplying plants with water, whether in the home or in the garden. A useful addition to a watering can is a spout, as it offers several advantages. In this article, you’ll learn what those advantages are. We’ll also tell you which watering cans and matching spouts you can find in Stöckli’s product range.
What are the advantages of a spout for a watering can?

Whether you have just a few houseplants or a full garden, a watering can is essential. It allows you to water flowers and other plants, supporting their growth. A spout helps you do this more effectively.
With a spout, you can direct the stream of water precisely where you want it, allowing for targeted watering. Because the spout is curved, the water reaches the roots directly. This prevents water from being wasted by wetting the leaves instead.
Indoors, using a spout has another advantage: no water drips from the leaves onto the windowsill or floor. That means there’s no need to wipe up afterward.
In the garden, a spout also helps you reach plants with roots that are difficult to access — such as those with many leaves or ones surrounded by other plants.
Gone are the days of simply pouring water over the leaves of such plants. Thanks to the spout, you can water their roots directly and thus promote healthy growth.
Controlled water flow
Another advantage of a spout is that it helps regulate the amount of water being poured. Without a spout, you need to carefully control the watering can to release the right amount of water — which can require effort.
If the spout has a narrow end, the amount of water that flows out is naturally limited. Even greater control can be achieved with a rose attachment. This type of spout has many small holes, which not only restrict the flow but also distribute the water evenly. This prevents waterlogging and overwatering.
The reduced water flow through a spout also protects the soil around the plant. A strong stream from a watering can could disturb the soil and expose the roots, which may hinder the plant’s growth. Controlled water flow from a spout or rose prevents this from happening.
This is especially useful when watering seedlings and young plants. Their delicate roots need to grow undisturbed into the soil, and a spout or rose ensures this is possible.
Which Stöckli spout fits which watering can?

In the Stöckli online shop, you can find both watering cans and the corresponding accessories. This way, you not only purchase products of the highest quality but can also rely on their compatibility. When you buy a new watering can from us, a spout or rose attachment is included.
Stöckli watering cans with a spout
In our shop, you will find, for example, a two-liter indoor watering can. Thanks to its elongated shape, it allows you to reach the roots of your houseplants optimally. The included spout also ensures even water distribution. Watering is made easier by the ergonomic handle. The watering can is available in red and green.
Our four-liter watering can also comes with a spout. Due to its volume, the can is suitable for:
- watering indoor plants in an apartment or house,
- use on a balcony or terrace, and
- watering plants in a smaller garden.
As with the two-liter model, the spout can be attached to the can when not in use. This ensures that you always know where it is and don’t have to search for it.
By the way, our four-liter can is also available in the appealing colors of the 2023 Limited Edition. Instead of the standard red, green, and black, you can choose one of these shades:
- Frozen Blueberry
- Soft Apricot
- Clear Sky
Stöckli watering cans with a rose attachment

Are you looking for a smaller watering can with a rose attachment? Then we recommend our greenhouse watering can. It holds five liters and has an elongated shape, allowing you to reach the roots of your plants easily. To handle seedlings and young plants gently, the can comes equipped with a rose attachment.
Our ladies’ watering can is specifically aimed at hobby gardeners. With a maximum volume of seven liters, it is ideal for women. The ergonomic handle also contributes to its suitability. The can comes with a rose attachment, allowing you to distribute water evenly.
The seven-liter ladies’ watering can is available in red and green. A limited edition in an especially attractive shade of green is also available. Additionally, we offer it in black made from recycled material.
Even larger is our ten-liter watering can, which also comes with a rose attachment. It is available in red or green, as well as in black made from recycled material in our shop. The largest watering can we offer has a capacity of twelve liters, making it perfect even for a relatively large garden.
Stöckli watering cans and spouts
Stöckli’s watering can accessories include rose attachments for the smaller cans in our range. So if you want to equip a two-, four-, or five-liter watering can with a rose attachment, you’ve come to the right place. The roses are available in the same colors as our watering cans, allowing you to select the exact match for your can.
For our larger watering cans, which come with a rose attachment when purchased, we offer spouts. Their curved shape makes it easier to reach the roots of your plants. Spouts are available for the ten- and twelve-liter cans.
Even for the two-liter indoor watering can, a spout is available. This allows you to get a replacement if the original one is lost.
If you support the growth of your garden plants with fertilizer, a fertilizer rose is a useful accessory. It is suitable for use with ten- and twelve-liter watering cans. Place the fertilizer in the rose attachment, and it will be distributed evenly to your plants through the flap.
