A lawn sprinkler base has a flat base plate with three radial arms extending from a central portion. An elbow conduit is mounted on the central portion and has threads for connection to a garden hose at one end and to a sprinkler at the top. Hooks are the distal ends of the arms point inwardly toward the center so that a garden hose can be connected to a conduit and then coiled around on the base plate, inserting the hose under each hook as it is reached. The base stabilizes the sprinkler and base against the reaction effects of water pressure and the like.
