SELF-CONTAIN PLANT WATERING APPARATUS SYSTEM
Self-contain plant watering apparatus system depicted in a shepherd's hook, whiskey barrel planter, wood post planter and trellis garden planter for the purpose of watering plants on a regulator bases while keeping the apparatus attractiveness in tack. Includes a quick disconnect fitting for easy hookup of any watering drip system is disclosed. It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved plant watering system which can be easily hook up and provide a regulator flow of water to any type of plant. It is another object of the present invention to provide an improved watering apparatus, which can be easily hookup to any type of irrigation system available, and keep the planter and/or plant hanger from corrosion and wear by keeping the water in a flexible hose threaded through the wood post and/or steel tubing structure. It is a further object of the present invention to provide an improved watering apparatus, which is simple and inexpensive in construction, which can be used indoor or outdoor for growing and displaying plants.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR STABILIZING CONTAINERIZED PLANTS
A method and system for supporting containerized plants in an upright and stationary position and at customizable, uniform spacing therebetween. The system comprises a frame, pockets, stabilizers positioned within the pockets and spacers. The pockets, stabilizers and spacers provide both horizontal and vertical support to each containerized plant, holding it securely in place without stakes or cables. The pockets with stabilizers and the spacers may be arranged in various patterns to promote stability of the system and health of the containerized plants. An irrigation system may be coupled to the system for maintaining and nourishing plants. The length of the frame is greater than the width, thus creating a stable environment to combat winds and disruptive forces. Individual frames may be attached to form designated and defined uniform growing or display areas and provide greater stability.

Macroalgae farming including attaching seaweed to a line
An apparatus for attaching vegetative propagules to a longline that may include a clip portion having a curved area sized to receive a stem of a vegetative propagule and having an opening to the curved area smaller than the curved area to secure the vegetative propagule in the curved area; a tapered barrel that is inserted into a longline; and a rigid connection by a tower between the clip portion and the tapered barrel. Also disclosed is a macroalgae farm including the apparatus for attaching vegetative propagules to a longline.
COLLAPSIBLE SUPPORT STRUCTURE AND METHOD OF USING THE SAME
The present invention relates to a collapsible support structure and its method of use. The support structure has a vertical support with a water inlet and tip with one or more holes. The vertical support in one arrangement is separable into a first and second portion that is connected by inserting the first portion into a receiving end of the second portion. Connection members connect horizontal supports to the vertical support. The horizontal supports extend perpendicularly outward from the vertical body due their friction fit connection, which allows for their unaided extension. The method of use includes attaching a water source to the water inlet to pressurize water within the vertical support that projects water from the tip. In turn, the vertical support is easily inserted into the ground, where it is left in place until the ground dries to the vertical support providing additional rigidity and support.
COLLAPSIBLE PLANT SUPPORT
A novel collapsible plant support includes a collapsible coil adapted to rest on a flat surface. In a particular embodiment, the collapsible plant support includes a plurality of vertical support structures coupled to the collapsible coil so as to provide additional support. In another particular embodiment, a collapsible plant support includes plant receptacle receiving element that supports both a collapsible coil and also a plant receptacle. In a more particular embodiment, the plant receptacle receiving element includes fluid ducts for connecting multiple plant receptacle receiving elements into a fluid network. In another embodiment, the coil is disposed within a helical sleeve coupled to a flexible, cylindrical mesh.

FRAGRANCE ENHANCEMENT DEVICE FOR FLOWERS
A device and method for retaining freshness of a cut flower by retaining the fragrance of flower head and providing stability to flower stem. The device comprises a plastic molded container for placing within a flower head of the cut flower, the container having a centrally located well filled with a gelatinous material impregnated with a fragrant liquid for emitting fragrance for an extended period. A bendable metal wire extending from a base of the plastic molded container, configured to be spirally wound around the flower stem for providing stability to the flower head attached to the stem.
Spring Clamp for Construction of Plant Cages and Trellises
A thin, flat, generally rectangular form, constructed of resilient material forming a spring plate clamping device for the removable attachment of horizontal plant support rods onto upright stakes, thereby facilitating the construction of plant cages to support and protect vegetation.
