  However, the growing method described in Patent Document 2 is a troublesome method for the user because it is necessary to wind and fix the cut pedicled grass or rooted grass.

  This invention makes it a subject to provide the cultivation method of the ornamental aquatic plant which is easy to grow aquatic plants for a producer and a user in view of this problem.

  Therefore, in the method for cultivating ornamental aquatic plants according to the present invention, a pedicle and / or root grass that has been cut so as to include a growth point is formed on a base configured by filling culture soil in a bag of net-like material. Put a metal or plastic inverted hook-shaped fixture on the base, fix the stem and / or root grass on the base, place this base on the tray, and give water by sprinkling water. It is characterized in that the stalk grass and / or root grass is allowed to root through the base bag.

  One of the features of the present invention is that a water bag cut to include a growth point is placed on a base filled with culture soil in a net-like bag, and a metal or plastic inverted hook-shaped fixture is inserted into the base. The point is that the aquatic plants are temporarily fixed to the base.

  As a result, aquatic plants can be easily fixed and rooted on the foundation, and it takes less time and effort to plant aquatic plants, making it easier for producers that require mass productivity, and for planting aquatic plants. There is no inconvenience and it is easy for the user to grow aquatic plants.

  The fixing device may be inserted into the base as it is, or may be removed from the base after the aquatic plants have taken root. In the above description, a fixing tool is used. However, because of the structure of the base, aquatic plants can be inserted into the base through a bag of net-like material and fixed.

  The method for nurturing ornamental aquatic plants according to the present invention comprises inserting a stem and / or root grass cut so as to include a growth point into a base constructed by filling culture soil in a bag of net-like material. It is characterized in that it is fixed, the foundation is placed on a tray, and water is given by watering to allow rooting and / or rooting grass to root.

  In addition, the foundation used for the above-described growth method is also novel. That is, according to the present invention, it is a base used for growing aquatic plants, and the mouth is closed from the mouth of a bag made of a net-like material, and the mouth is closed, including the growth point. Stem and / or root grass cut in such a way that it is placed and temporarily fixed by a metal or plastic reverse saddle-shaped fixture, or cut to include a growth point and / or Alternatively, it is possible to provide a foundation for growing aquatic plants in which root grass is inserted and fixed.

  The bag only needs to be made of a net-like material. For example, a hemp bag can be used, but other materials, for example, soft synthetic resin materials such as cotton yarn and nylon can be used. The shape of the bag is not particularly limited, and a bag shape or a spherical shape can be adopted.

  As the culture soil, red jade soil, vermiculite, Kanuma soil, perlite, black soil, peat moss and the like can be used in appropriate combination. For example, a culture soil for horticulture can be used. In order to grow aquatic plants, it is better to mix fertilizer with the culture soil. The fertilizer can be used by appropriately blending a chemical fertilizer or an organic fertilizer.

  For aquatic plants, pedunculated grass and root grass can be used. The stem plants include Alternanthera, Bacopa, Glossostigma, Hydrocotyle, Hygrophila, Ludwigia, Micranthemum, Microcarpaea, Murdannia, Myriophyllum, Persicaria, Pogostemon, Proserpinaca, St. , Hemianthus genus, Limnophila genus, Polygonum genus, Ammannia genus, Nesaea genus, Hottonia genus, Lysimachia genus, Potamogeton genus, Cardamine genus, Heteranthera sp Genus, Utricularia genus etc. can be mentioned.

  Further, examples of the root grass include the genus Alisma, Eleocharis, Cryptcoryne, Echinodorus, Vallisneria, Sagittaria, Cyperus, Aponogeton, Anubias, and Bucephalandra. In addition, fern plants such as Marsilea genus, Microsorium genus, Bolbitis genus, and Ceratopteris genus can be planted as aquatic plants.
