A hose holder and a method for adjusting the spray direction of a hose in a hose holder. The holder has a longitudinally extending trough attached at a fixed elevational angle to a laterally extending socket that is designed to be used in cooperation with a removably matingly shaped peg that can be mounted on any suitable support structure. A multi-point socket hole with a regular polygonal cross section removably mates with a square peg for providing selectable horizontal angular positioning. The trough partially encircles the hose to keep it substantially straight, and resilient end clips further encircle the hose to removably hold it. An upward or downward directed elevational angle for the spray direction is selected by engaging the hose in the holder with an open end at an upper or lower end of the trough. One or more variable height ground engaging supports provide height and location adjustment.
