Yes there is no way to integrate through zigbee. They do have a beta firmware with mqtt support, I have asked them to let me use it, and will look into it. Of course, you will need a mqtt broker, but at least it should work locally.

Has anyone tried one of these?

Would it work directly with HE?
I'm in the US and put together my own solution using a solenoid valve and outdoor plug... something like this to give you an idea:
Note: This was just a cursory search, I can't vouch for the specific devices. Also you might need adapters to fit your hoses etc.
In the US I wired an outdoor extension cord (with the receptacle bit trimmed) to the solenoid valve so I could use it with the outdoor plug.. has been working great over the last 3 years or so and the wiring was super simple.

Anyone tried the Wulian Smart Water Valve
http://www.wuliangroup.com/en/uploads/Wulian%20Smart%20Water%20Valve%20.pdf
I'm rebuildong my network after the lightning forced a move to C7 and am down to this Orbit hose valve. Anybody have pairing/re-pairing instructions for HE? An old thread on ST forums: "Did a factory reset, pulled the batteries, plugged them back in, and discovered" --hasn't worked so far.
Update - Found HE instructions:
