A live plant container comprises an elongated trough, a hydratable propagating medium positioned in and substantially filling the trough, and a cover closing off the trough to form an oasis for the plants with the cover including a plurality of longitudinally spaced openings configured and dimensioned to form cells to retain live plants in an upright position when inserted through the opening into the propagating medium.

A display mounting device for holding a display object has a mounting region with at least one mounting edge. The display mounting device also has an opening, into which the mounting region may be inserted; a resilient placement member, which bends to allow enlargement of the opening as the mounting region is inserted into the opening, and returns to or towards its normal orientation when the mounting region has been fully inserted, thereby assisting in holding the display object in position; at least one stabilising member to assist in holding the display object in position; and at least one retaining member, co-operating with the mounting edge to inhibit withdrawal of the mounting region from the opening, thereby assisting in holding the display object in position

Vertically stackable benches and pallets for holding three inch and four inch diameter planting pots, wherein the benches can be entirely formed from wire. Each of the benches has a center portion formed from a planar shaped wire grid. Support members on opposite ends of the wire grid allow the benches to be stacked on top of one another while maintaining an airspace therebetween. Each support member has an upper bent tip extending upwardly from the surface of the grid, and a lower legs that form a downwardly opening slot opening, the legs extending below the undersurface of the grid. The bent tips of a first bench interlock into the slot in the legs of a second bench that is stacked on top of the first bench. Airspaces between each of the stacked pallets allows for seedlings in the pots to grow regardless of whether the pots are arranged in every grid opening or in staggered grid openings.

A plant growing tray comprises a plurality of strips of tray compartments and a foldable portion or pleat connecting two adjacent strips of the tray compartments. The foldable connecting portion is generally a V-groove having a folding line along the bottom of the groove. Two end members are provided optionally at both ends of the foldable V-groove portion. Each tray compartment has an opening on its bottom.

Continuously assembled pots, configured in square or hexagonal cylinders for raising and transplanting seedlings are formed by developing non-adhered portions of a band, which is formed by adhering two sheets of film such as paper or the like. The portion of the band corresponding to a connector portion which connects the pots is folded at a given length, and has an elongated or unfolded length larger than the width of one side of a pot. The folded portion of the band is adhered to itself and to a pot with a water soluble paste, so that the continuously assembled pots are separated by water during raising and pulled out continuously from one end thereof in a line.

An air pruning plant growth system comprising an air-pruning tray having a plurality of plant growth cells with upper elliptical openings within an upper plane, lower elliptical openings with diameters larger than the diameters of the upper elliptical openings within a lower plane spaced from and parallel to the upper plane, continuous, upwardly tapering, side walls joining the upper and lower opening, and a continuous, horizontal bottom wall joining the cells; and a support tray having an air permeable floor and upwardly extending tray side walls.

A stackable culture tray for growing young plants includes pots which are moulded in parallel rows to a cover plate so as to be oriented downwardly relative to the cover plate, the bottoms of the pots including holes, the cover plate including a circumferential edge extending downwardly. A first row of pots has, instead of the two outermost pots, two supports and the last row has, instead of the two pots located second from the end, two supports which are hollow and open at the bottom and are oriented upwardly. Each of the two pots in the first row located second from the end includes a supporting ring at its bottom and each of the two outermost pots in the last row includes a supporting ring at its bottom. The upper end of each support has a centering shoulder.
摘要:
An assembly of pots for raising and transplantation of seedlings, the assembly made of paper or a paper-like thin film, in which the side wall of each pot is provided, by means of a cut, with tongue-like pieces which can be easily lifted-up toward the outside of the pot by the pressure of seedling roots while in the soil after transplantation, therefore, making the extension of roots from the tongue-like portion both vigorous and untangled with respect to adjacent potted seedlings.
摘要:
A seedling growing container is illustrated wherein a number of removable partitions or barriers are positioned together in a block. Each of the partitions has interconnected diverging walls forming a series of troughs therebetween open at the top and the bottom so that the partitions may be placed in opposing relation as in a tray forming growing compartments from each of the opposing troughs which are in register with each other, suitable for growing a single seedling. Positioning of the plugs is contemplated such that alternate rows of plugs of growing material, each of which is capable of growing a single seedling, are utilized so that each plug will be surrounded for the most part by a partition with the remainder being surrounded by an air space for preventing roots from growing from one plug to the other through the process of air pruning. The tray is partially open at the bottom, at least to an extent sufficient to provide an opening for heated air to be passed upwardly through the voids formed by the omitted plugs for further encouraging growth of the seedlings. Any suitable means may be utilized for positioning the partition together to form a block.
摘要:
A seedling container is illustrated wherein a number of removable partitions or barriers are clamped together in a block by releasable clamping means permitting alignment of the partitions and then sequential removal in such a way as to support the removed partitions while removing the seedlings one row at a time. Additional stability and alignment is provided through the use of projections and slots as well as additional clamping means. Air pruning is provided, and through the use of a converging bottom in alternate compartments occupied by seedling plugs, loss of growing medium is avoided.
