I was given a pair of glass balloon watering tubes for Christmas. They just sit in the side of the pot and the water just leeches into the soil. The ones I have are very pretty mottled blue and they work. I tried to get some from the supplier but told they only sell through catalogues and I do not have a name of the catalogue. Has anyone bought any or know where I can get them. They will make nice presents.
Help will be nuch appreciated

Yes they are nice aren't they? I love blown glass. I kill houseplants so only have aloes and stuff on my kitchen windowsill. No need for pretty waterers!
If you search for "Aqua Globes" you will find that as well as the ones on QVC (http://www.qvcuk.com/ukqic/qvcapp.aspx/app.detail/params.item.560475) there are loads on Amazon (http://www.amazon.co.uk/aqua-globe-Garden-Outdoors/s?ie=UTF8&rh=n%3A11052671%2Ck%3AAqua%20Globe&page=1) & ebay (http://shop.ebay.co.uk/?_from=R40&_trksid=m38&_nkw=Aqua+Globes) amongst other places. There is quite a difference in prices & there are multiple sizes available.
