Drip Irrigation Devices

Drip irrigation devices and the associated methods for making and using such devices for irrigation are described. The devices can be attached to a plant container or pot, typically on the edge and/or not in the soil, so as not to impede the plant's root structure or the soil configuration. The devices receive fluid from an external fluid distribution mechanism and then apply the fluid to the plant or soil using an internal distribution mechanism. The drip irrigation devices can be configured with at least one member to hold, stabilize, or balance the irrigation device on the desired surface of the container. The devices can also contain with an internal or external flow controller to regulate the flow of the fluid to the container.
