475L Oak Tree Trunk Style Water Butt

The design for the Evergreen Water butt is taken from an actual ancient German Oak Tree. It has a highly realistic appearance so you would be forgiven for thinking it is the real thing. Great in school or community gardens - anywhere with a bit of fun or where children are being encouraged to grow plants. It has even been purchased as a theatrical prop!

If you haven't already guessed, this water butt is made from UV protected and weather resistant high quality Polyethylene. Made from high grade plastic rather than wood, this waterbutt is sure to last for years to come as it will not fade or crack through the seasons.

The removable lid (fashioned to look like the trunk has been cut through to show the ) comes with a child safety lock for peace of mind.

The waterbutt comes with a 3/4" BSP metal tap in a brass finish  and a draindown point at the side for either emptying the tank or connecting it to another waterbutt

Optional Extras

Rainwater Diverter

We recommend installing the 3P Filter Collector Universal with your Evergreen Water Butt. The Filter Collector connects your Water Butt to your Downpipe via a 30cm length of Hose and also filters the water, removing any debris, before transferring the water into the tank. The Filter Collector is ideal for roof areas up to 90m2 (other filters are available for larger roof areas).

The 3P Filter Collector Universal  is also available with longer Water Butt to Downpipe linking kits (lengths of 1m, 2m or 5m). 

Tank to Tank Connection Kit

A Water Butt Linking Kit can be purchased to join two Evergreen Water Butts together using the lower 3/4" brass threaded ports.

How to link water tanks together

If you already have an Evergreen water tank (or other water butt with a 3/4 inch BSP female threaded connection point near the base of the tank) you can purchase a 3/4" Tank to Tank Connection Kit.
