Disclosed is a container suitable for holding objects such as flowers and which may include a body having at least one wall defining a cavity. The at least one wall may include openings separated apart from each other. A tensioner may pass through the openings. A platform may be situated within the cavity and coupled to the tensioner so as to receive a force from the tensioner when a tension is applied to the tensioner. This force may be operative to lift the platform and the flower coupled thereto so that the flower partially or fully extends from the cavity while at least a portion of the platform remains in the cavity.

A floral cage includes a bottom panel; a top panel; and a plurality of side panels. The side panels vertical extending between the bottom panel and the top panel, each side panel is formed to include cooperating structures for coupling with corresponding features of a similarly constructed further floral cage. The floral cage is selectively configurable in an unassembled condition and an assembled condition, the floral cage planar in configuration in the unassembled condition, the plurality of side panels folded perpendicular to the bottom panel and the top panel in the assembled condition and the floral cage rectangular in configuration in the assembled condition and defining a rectangular opening for receiving a foam block.

A vase apparatus includes a vase supported by a ground engagement mechanism such that the vase can be displaced from the ground engagement mechanism. The ground engagement mechanism is arranged to enable the vase to be presented substantially vertically. At least one displaceable portion extends from the ground engagement mechanism or the vase. Each displaceable portion includes a plurality of apertures for receiving bunches of flowers or stems of individual flowers or plants.

A method for producing a biodegradable floral arrangement media that includes obtaining a pre-formed mixture by mixing together: (a) a matrix of natural or inert inorganic fibers and/or powders; (b) a water insoluble, meltable compostable binder; and (c) optionally, additives; and heating the pre-formed mixture to fuse the binder with the matrix. Also, a biodegradable floral arrangement media made by the process, which is preferably compostable.

A mountable plant cultivation apparatus capable of being mounted on an outer surface of a mounting object, according to the present invention, comprises: a housing disposed along an outer surface of a mounting object to have an adjustable length; and a planting part which is disposed in one side of the housing and in which a plant is planted.
