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.

A method of cultivating plants includes suspending a plant, where step of suspending includes freely hanging the plant by a top portion of a stem and where a root portion freely hangs from the stem in a substantially enclosed root compartment in the absence of growth medium, providing water with nutrients and/or oxygen to the root portion, lowering the plant after growth by re suspending of the plant by a newly grown portion of the stem above the top portion of the stem, and where, after the step of lowering, a bottom portion of the stem becomes freely hanging in the root compartment, to allow new roots to grow on the bottom portion of the stem in the root compartment, pruning the root portion at least partially at a bottom end thereof, and repeating the steps of lowering and root pruning after each time the plant has been allowed to grow.

A tree anchoring apparatus, a tree anchoring kit and a method of anchoring of a tree on a roof deck is provided consisting of three tree cabling systems attached to a tree. Each tree cabling system can exist in one of two states, depending on whether there is slack in the system or whether there is resistance due to movement of the tree from a vertical position to a horizontal position. In a wind event that causes the tree to move from a vertical position to a horizontal position, one or more of the tree cabling systems will experience resistance that keeps the tree in a horizontal position. When the wind event is over, the tree can be returned to a vertical position.

A trellis assembly for decorative trellising of vines includes a base that is configured to position in soil. A bar is coupled to and extends bidirectionally from a top of the base. The bar is arcuate. A plurality of rods is coupled to and extends radially from the bar. The rods are substantially coplanar. Each rod has a plurality of fasteners that is coupled to and extends from the rod. The fasteners are configured to couple to vines to trellis the vines.
