Description

INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY The present invention provides a plate for a plant decoration, a plant decoration, and a method for producing the same, which can easily and satisfactorily provide interior decoration using epiphytes.

Although there has been a demand to use plants as indoor decorations, it is difficult for amateurs to create decorations using epiphytes, such as orchids.

For example, Patent Literature 1 discloses a method and apparatus for growing orchids, which are epiphytes (hereinafter referred to as a conventional example).

In this prior art example 1, a water pumping member capable of pumping up a nutrient solution is laminated on a growth member capable of securing root loops and air permeability, and a growth hole is provided by deficient an appropriate portion of the growth member. The hole is filled with the roots of orchids together with a water-retaining material, and the lower end of the epiphytic member is immersed in a nutrient tank to grow orchids vertically.

JP-A-61-274630

However, in the conventional example, it is necessary to laminate a water lifting member on the growth member, form a growth hole in the growth member, and fill the growth hole with orchids together with a water retention material. It's work and very cumbersome.

FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram of a usage state of the embodiment; FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view for explaining the state of use of the present embodiment;

A preferred embodiment of the present invention will be briefly described with reference to the drawings showing the operation of the present invention.

The plate is made of calcined potter's clay, and the surface of the plate is subjected to a surface treatment that allows epiphytes 1 to grow thereon.

After the plate is immersed in water 9, for example, an orchid is placed on the surface of the plate, and the orchid is tied with a string 3 to fix the orchid to the plate. Subsequently, sphagnum moss 5 or the like is attached to the vicinity of the orchid roots to retain water. Since the plate has moderate breathability and water permeability, the orchid is provided with appropriate moisture and is kept cool (because the surface temperature of the plate decreases due to the heat of vaporization), and the sphagnum moss 5 is moderately distributed. It retains water and thus the orchids grow well.

A specific embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

The plate A of the present embodiment is made by baking pottery clay with high plasticity, and is subjected to a surface treatment that allows epiphytes 1 to grow thereon.

There are various kinds of epiphytes 1, such as those that grow on the plate A, those that do not grow, and those that do not have roots in the first place. be.

In addition, this embodiment is a case where sphagnum moss 5 is adopted as a material for covering the roots of orchids. This sphagnum 5 is obtained by reconstituting dried sphagnum moss with water.

The sphagnum moss 5 is highly water retentive, and it becomes possible to grow and maintain the epiphyte 1, in this case, the expensive orchid, for a long period of time. It should be noted that the sphagnum moss 5 may be a living one, and any material other than the sphagnum moss 5 may be used as long as it exhibits a water-retaining effect.

The plate A of this embodiment is made of fired china clay, ie, pottery, and has a square shape of about 10 cm in length, about 8 cm in width, and about 1 cm in thickness when viewed from the front. The surface of the plate A is not coated with a special protective resin or the like, and the surface is formed with unevenness that can be slightly felt when touched by hand. The size and height of the fine irregularities formed on the surface of the plate A can be changed by adjusting the potter's clay or by adjusting the firing temperature, and can be appropriately set.

Further, the plate A is provided with a hole 4 through which the thread 3 is inserted and a locking hole 8 for locking a hook 7 for suspending the plate A. As shown in FIG.

Any thread may be used as long as it is inconspicuous, and in this embodiment, for example, cotton thread is used.

Further, a plurality of grooves 6 are formed in the longitudinal direction on the rear surface of the plate body A so that air permeability is ensured even when the plate body A is placed on a stand 10 or hung from a wall surface. The concave grooves 6 are formed before the clay is fired, and also exhibit the function of preventing warping in the vertical direction during firing.

The surface treatment that allows the epiphytes 1 to grow (adhere) to the roots of the epiphytes 1 is, for example, a blasting treatment (roughening treatment), etc., in addition to the irregular shape treatment formed on the surface of the plate A described above. Any process may be used as long as it can be locked.

Moreover, the plate A of this embodiment is a so-called pottery. As a result of various experiments such as those made of fibers, those made of non-woven fabric, those made of synthetic resin, and those made of wood, it was found that pottery has appropriate breathability and water permeability, and is suitable for epiphytes 1. It was confirmed that it is preferable because it gives the epiphyte 1 a sufficient amount of moisture and keeps the epiphyte 1 moderately cool (see FIG. 8). The breathability and water permeability of the plate A made of pottery can be changed by adjusting the clay or the firing temperature, and can be set as appropriate.

Hereinafter, a method for producing the plant ornamental body 2 of this example will be described in detail.

After the plate A is immersed in water 9 (water may be mixed with nutrients) (Fig. 3), the plate A is placed horizontally on a suitable base 10, and then An orchid is placed on the surface of this plate A (FIG. 4). Subsequently, a sphagnum moss mass is appropriately adhered to the vicinity of the root of the orchid (when this sphagnum moss mass is adhered to the plate A, the orchid is further held and fixed). Subsequently, the thread 3 is inserted through the hole 4 and the orchid is tied to the plate A (Fig. 5). After binding the thread 3, a mass of sphagnum moss may be attached. Due to the air permeability and water permeability of the plate A (the water impregnated in the plate A moderately oozes out), the orchid is given an appropriate amount of moisture, the orchid is appropriately kept cool, and the sphagnum moss 5 Combined with the water retention action, the orchid grows well (Fig. 6), and becomes an interior decoration with the orchid attached near the roots covered with sphagnum moss 5 (if sphagnum 5 grows on the plate A , the orchid will strongly adhere to the plate A in a single layer.). For example, by using a hook 7 to hang the sphagnum moss 5 on the wall of a water tank 11, it becomes a novel decoration (FIGS. 7 and 8).

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and the specific configuration of each component can be designed as appropriate.
