Collapsible Horizontal Trellis
A collapsible and portable trellis which supports growing plants and increases their overall yield. The trellis includes a first half assembly, a second half assembly, and a locking mechanism. The first half assembly and the second half assembly are hingedly connected to each other through the locking mechanism and each includes a first lateral beam, a second lateral beam, a first crossbar, a second crossbar, a lattice, and an at least one support leg. The first lateral beam and the second lateral beam are positioned parallel and offset to each other. The first crossbar and the second crossbar are perpendicularly connected in between the first lateral beam and the second lateral beam to yield an overall rectangular shape. The support leg is connected to the second crossbar. The lattice is mounted to the first lateral beam, the second lateral beam, the first crossbar, and the second crossbar.

MOBILE TRELLIS, COMPONENTS FOR USE WITH MOBILE TRELLISES, AND HORTICULTURAL ENVIRONMENTS INCORPORATING AT LEAST ONE MOBILE TRELLIS
A mobile trellis may be expandable and/or may include reusable components (i.e., components that are used with a second plant following use of the mobile trellis/component with a first plant). A mobile trellis may be incorporated into a horticultural environment. An expandable mobile trellis may include modular components. A mobile trellis may create a microclimate for an associated plant. A mobile trellis may anticipate changes in an associated horticultural environment based upon an event (e.g., a door opening, a component failure, etc.) and/or the mobile trellis may preemptively alter an “input” to, and/or an “output” from, a horticultural environment based on anticipating a change in the horticultural environment.

MULTI-TIERED PLANT GROWING AID AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
A multi-tiered plant growing aid includes a first frame and a plurality of base legs attached to the first frame such that the first frame is supported by and spaced apart from a base surface. A second frame is included, and a plurality of support legs are positioned between the first frame and the second frame such that the second frame is positioned parallel and spaced apart from the first frame. A first mesh panel is attached to the first frame and a second mesh panel is attached to the second frame such that the second mesh panel is positioned generally parallel to and spaced apart from the first mesh panel. The second frame has an outer dimension greater than an outer dimension of the first frame such that a plurality of cascading growing shelves is provided.

PLANT STAKE AND DISPLAY TAG HOLDER
A plant stake and display tag holder for use with a nursery container such as a pot or free-standing planter. The display tag is attached to the container and is accessible and visible to the consumer without obstruction from the container or plant contained therein. The bottom of the plant stake inserts into a slit in the rim portion of a nursery container and locks into place to hold the plant stake upright and securely in place. The display tag is held above the soil line and avoids the common problems associated with display tag holders inserted below the soil line.
PLANT GROW RACK AND WATERING SYSTEM
A plant grow rack that includes a base portion having semi-circular bracket and a plurality of stakes and support hooks attached thereto and is adapted to be placed around an existing plant, be pushed into the ground, and hold a semi-circular water supply line above the ground and around the plant to thereby water said plant.

Plant support
Disclosed herein is a supporting bracket component of a support system for temporarily supporting a plant via a fixed a fixed structure of vertical poles which support at least one substantially horizontal support cord, the support system comprising: a substantially vertical alignment wire having a top end and a bottom end; a curve greater than 180° in the top end of the vertical alignment wire forming a hanging hook portion configured to be selectively supported by one of the support cords; at least one supporting bracket coupled to one of the substantially horizontal support cords and capturing the alignment wire and the plant; wherein the alignment wire maintains vertical orientation of the plant substantially above the point at which the plane protrudes from the ground.
