A planter for detachably affixing and securing a pot and plant in a vertical orientation relative to a tree, the planter adapted to allow the tree to grow through the planter and blend in with surrounding vegetation.

The present invention discloses a plant climbing column, comprising a climbing column body, in which a receiving hole is arranged, and at least one end of the receiving hole is open; a connecting component, arranged at the open end of the receiving hole so that the connecting component is detachably connected to the climbing column body. The connecting component can enclose the open end of the receiving hole. The present invention can improve the convenience for the use of plant climbing columns.

The rotating plant pot is a device whereby plants of varying sizes can be grown indoors with a balanced appearance and growth. The plant pot is stationed on an elevated plane for viewing pleasure, and the weight of the pot, plant, and any soil, is centered on an axle on said table. This design decreases the amount of torque needed to rotate even a large plant, such that it can be done manually by the gardener, or a motor can be installed which can spin the plant at a constant or varying rate. Vertical towers extend from the base of the pot to the surface level to secure plant fences, which can hold the plant upright and assist the plant's vertical growth. The disclosure additionally includes a spring configured with a predetermined spring constant to unwind and rotate the pot according to the adjustable rotation rate.

A trellis comprising a receiving section (2), a trellis structure (3) and a base section (4). The base section has an elongate main form, parts of which can be positioned between the bearing section of a saddle-type planter and the retaining structure. The trellis structure (3) is fixed in position on the base section (4) so that it extends upwards relative to the base section (4).

The invention relates to disposable utensils such as kitchen utensils and cutlery. The technical problem is how to adapt the utensil to get extra usability and to allow its biodegradation after its primary use for serving or consuming food. The problem is solved by utensils comprising an elongated flat handle connected via a neck to a part of a food handling utensil, the handle having a through hole at the proximal end, and the utensil further comprising at least one plant seed arranged in the through hole, and a biodegradable, preferably composting barrier arranged on the handle so as to close the through hole on both sides and retain the plant seed in the through hole. The barrier can be formed as a film made of chitosan, alginate, gelatine or from a starch-based material, from cellulose-based material or protein-based material obtained from chicken gluten or casein. Having completed its primary use, the utensil is used as a planting tool that also serves as a support to a plant and gets eventually naturally degraded.

Trellis arrangements are used for supporting fruit-bearing plants as they grow. A problem in some orchards or the like is that it can be difficult to install trellis posts in the ground, in particular when the posts are relatively long and difficult to place at the correct angle. The invention discloses a trellis comprising a plurality of supports, each support comprising a shaft embedded in a ground, and at least one connector arm extending upwards at an acute angle with respect to the ground. The trellis is such that for each support, a post is sleeve-fitted to the connector arm so that the post extends upwards at an acute angle but does not touch the ground; the upwardly extending posts collectively support elevated lines running between the posts; and the lines support branches of a fruit bearing plant growing along the lines.

An agricultural stake to support plants includes a fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) elongated member comprising a top end and a bottom end, and a textured exterior surface. The agricultural stake includes an elongated member comprising a thin walled tube having a top end and a bottom end, and the elongated member comprises fiberglass reinforced plastic and exhibits no flex memory. The elongated member has an exterior surface texture configured to provide purchase to a line attached to the elongated member, where the exterior surface texture is formed by an abrasive.
