Here follows an excerpt from the Offbeat Nova website as written by Matt Eng:
Most people will know this next sculpture simply as the “Giant watering can.” The functional sculpture is located at the Holly, Woods & Vines garden center off of Richmond Highway in Alexandria, VA. The watering can is approximately eighteen feet tall and twenty feet wide. Several neon palm trees flank the watering can. In warmer weather, the sculpture actually flows water from its end into a flower pot resting in a small pond filled with water and decorative reptiles. Driving by, you can always see a customer or two marveling at the giant structure, especially when its flowing in the warmer months. The garden center also has a terra-cotta warrior statue in the middle of a gazebo among other similar lawn statues you can purchase.
There is an identical can and flower pot in downtown Staunton, Virginia. That sculpture was made by local artist Willie Ferguson in the 1990s. Ferguson has several sculptures in an around the Staunton, VA, area. One would assume the giant watering can in Alexandria is also Ferguson’s creation.
