An adjustable plant stand assembly is provided with a baseplate to support a planter. The baseplate has an overall profile. A plurality of upright supports is adjustably connected to the baseplate to support the baseplate above an underlying support surface, to expand relative to the baseplate to support planters of varying sizes, and to retract relative to the baseplate within the overall profile of the baseplate.

Disclosed is a pot suspension apparatus that allows a user to safely, efficiently, and easily hang multiple pots from each other through its center drain hole so that the pots are suspended along the same vertical axis. The pot suspension apparatus features a rod with a hook and an eye, wherein the hook from one rod and can hang off of the eye of a second rod. The pot suspension apparatus also features multiple flanges that secure a pot in place along a rod and allow for organized and directed drainage of water through the suspended pots.

A frame including at least two hangers and at least two vertical members, each of the vertical members attached to at least one of the hangers on a first side of the vertical members, and a bottom attached to a second side of the each of the vertical members.

A potted plant turntable including a base and a rotating dish. The rotating dish supports a potted plant which may be rotated with the dish to allow more even exposure of the plant to sunlight. The dish rests on a bearing collar of the base and may be manually rotated or driven by a motor. Drainage holes are spaced from the center of the dish and for many embodiments spaced radially inwardly from an outer edge.

A modular assembly comprising at least one holder, base-unit having at least one hollow opening on at least one end and further comprising at least one adapter-unit; wherein said adapter-unit plugs securely into the hollow opening of said holder, base-unit; and wherein said holder, base-unit and said at least one adapter-unit may be interchanged and combined with alternate holder, base-units and adapter-units to form a variety of cohesive, convertible assemblies which function as a vase, a plant stand, a candle holder and/or a caddy for various articles.
