Here we are going on around into the shade bed. Each side of that oak tree has a half circle sprayer in it. These are also NOT adjustable as to pattern, but ARE adjustable as to volume. I have this one turned up high, but the other one is kind of low. The one on the other side is also the one that waters the japanese maple. I have hostas around the base of this tree in front of the lirope, but only ONE has come back. I may be planting more but I won't lament that here. This is the bed that contractors inadvertantly filled with nasty rocky dirt and undid all the amending I had done. I think that killed my hostas. Anyway, that container to the left does NOT have a basket dripper b/c it gets soaked by that sprayer you see there. Keep looking to the left of that container and you will see the fence, I have impatiens, elephant ear bulbs and caladiums (not up yet) in that bed which will be my next picture. Between the 2 I have several other plants that get hit between the sprayer in this picture and the sprayer in the next shot.
