I wish I had an inground. But the best alternative I found is the Rain Train by Nelson. A little pricey (like $60), but you don't have to move the hose

We've had average rain fall except for this winter/spring. winter was exceptionally dry, then we almost set a record for spring rainfall. I've got 4 maples around the house, and three are doing just fine. The one in front (that catches the afternoon/evening sun) seems to be a bit under-the weather. I may have to take a few leaves into an arborist and see what they say.
