Design Evolution

My thoughts of the design evolved from the initial watering cup idea to a sprinkler idea due to the fact that it would ruin the beauty of the plant or flower if wire and some sort of cup was attached.
A sprinkler system would also be easier to attach to the plant itself. The following image documents my design evolution. My thoughts are that the PVC hose would be connected to a timer which would then connect to the tap. The timer would be set how often as needed and the plant would be automatically looked after. However, if the other person was experiencing unhappiness or were in an unstable emotional state this would send a sensor through to the system, which would then block the water from being administered through the sprinkler system during the time specified.
