Abstract
A garden nozzle includes a core piece received in the barrel of the nozzle and the core piece includes an outlet allowing water to come out therefrom. The core piece is in communication with the path defined in the handle and water is provided via the path. A movable member is movably mounted to the core piece and is driven by an operation member connected to the barrel and can be operated by one finger of the user's hand grasping the handle. The position of the movable member changes the relative positions of the outlet and the opening located at a center of the cone-shaped inner periphery of the movable member, so as to obtain different pattern of watering.
