Description

  The present invention relates to a plant appreciation container used for appreciating plants such as phalaenopsis. More specifically, the present invention relates to a plant appreciation container in which decorative members such as color sand and color beads are arranged on the inner side surface and upper surface of the container to enhance appreciation.

  Conventionally, this type of plant appreciation container is made up of a transparent outer container with a bottom and an upper end opening, and a flower pot-shaped inner container (a flower pot) with a bottom and an upper end opening. The outer container and the inner container (plant pot) A decorative member such as a color sand or a color bead for applying a design is filled in the gap between the two and the like to enhance appreciation.

  However, in such a structure, a large area between the outer container and the inner container (flower pot) must be filled with decorative members such as colored sand and colored beads, and the amount of decorative members used is large. There was a problem of becoming.

Therefore, conventionally, in order to solve this problem, for example, a configuration as disclosed in Patent Documents 1 and 2 has been proposed.
In Patent Document 1, a transparent inner wall is provided in a watertight state with a transparent outer wall through a gap as appropriate, and a transparent bottomed outer container having an upper surface is formed. Color sand, colored beads, etc. are formed in the gap. A plant appreciation container that is filled with the decorative member is disclosed.
In Patent Document 2, an outer cylinder, an inner cylinder, and a ring-shaped bottom plate that integrally closes the bottom surfaces of both cylinders are provided, and a ring-shaped space in which an upper surface is opened between the outer cylinder and the inner cylinder. A flowerpot cover is disclosed in which is formed and at least the outer cylinder is transparent. The flowerpot cover is used by filling a space between the outer cylinder and the inner cylinder with a decorative member such as a color sand or a color bead. In this case, the decorative members such as the color sand and the colored beads can be layered with different colors so that the desired color stripe pattern can be expressed on the outer surface of the flower pot cover.
Thus, in what was disclosed by patent document 1, 2, the outer peripheral part of the container becomes a double wall structure, and decorative members, such as a color sand and a color bead, are put in the said double wall structure. By filling, the amount of the decorative member to be used can be suppressed.
