Definitions
- the invention relates to an ornamental plant arrangement consisting of a container for a plant substrate, one or more ornamental plants rooted in the plant substrate and a support for the container.
- Such ornamental plant arrangements have hitherto been customary for a wide variety of ornamental plants, the container for the plant substrate normally forming a vessel or ornamental vessel which is mounted on a support, e.g. B. a suspension, a console, column or the like. Is supported.
- a support e.g. B. a suspension, a console, column or the like.
- efforts have been made to create new ornamental plant arrangements, which are usually characterized by one or more, often knotty stems and corresponding shoots from these strains.
- a classic example of such an arrangement is the Japanese bonsai, which is becoming increasingly popular until it is ready for exhibition, i.e. for use in a lounge, etc., but takes very long periods of time, often on the order of years, even decades lie.
- these ornamental plants need permanent care both during rearing and during the exhibition, whereby not only regular correct watering, but also a targeted pruning of the above and below-ground parts of the plant and often bindings of these parts of the plant are necessary to achieve the desired appearance and get.
- the care of such ornamental plants is therefore, with the exception of insensitive and per se plant-friendly plants, more or less reserved for the specialist or a person who devotes himself to plant care with great effort and great expertise, if no setbacks should occur, which are due to the the long rearing and Caring for very expensive plants is particularly important.
- epiphyte trees in which a dead tree component, usually a branch, is provided with a plant, preferably consisting of aerial roots. It is necessary to anchor the tree itself and the respective planting sufficiently to avoid failures.
- special care instructions must also be observed here for plants that mostly come from the tropical rainforest.
- the object of the invention is therefore to provide an ornamental plant arrangement which should make it possible to obtain a wide variety of overall impressions with relatively simple means, a main task also being seen to provide an arrangement which, in the broadest sense, can replace a difficult bonsai in growing.
- the support consists of a trunk stump of a living wood plant, in particular deciduous tree, which in turn is rooted in a plant container and protrudes from this container, and the ornamental plant container is designed as an attachment part attached to the trunk stump and fastened to this attachment with supports that the ornamental plant (s) growing out of it a represents or represent a tree crown forming shoot of the trunk stump.
- the arrangement of ornamental plants offers a multitude of variation possibilities in the design, which can be realized by any combination of different lengths and gnarled stumps with suitable ornamental plants in a different arrangement.
- ornamental plants come both leaf and flower plants, but also grasses, ferns and the like.
- the growth form and growth arrangement again offers a wide variety of design options.
- a decisive advantage of the invention is that both the woody plants supplying the stumps and the ornamental plants in their containers are driven separately and completely independently of one another.
- the freshly cut tree stump remains alive for a long time, provides a favorable microclimate for the shoots of the ornamental plants growing in the plant substrate and, if desired, can also be brought to a fresh shoot itself, so that its shoots can then be washed into the ornamental plants and / or when the ornamental plant container is removed there is an ornamental plant with the shoots of the trunk stump.
- the space required for the ornamental plants advanced in the containers is extremely small, although in the case of more sensitive ornamental plants only these ornamental plants are to be promoted in their containers in the greenhouse or the like, whereas the woody plants supplying the stumps can usually be advanced outdoors and require no special care .
- the invention provides that the ornamental plant container below the plant substrate contains a receiving space for water and / or a nutrient liquid and that the plant substrate itself or a wick of this substrate is immersed in this receiving space. It is advantageous if the receiving space for water or nutrient liquid can be fed through a closable side opening of the ornamental plant container.
- the receiving space forms a drawer that can be pulled out transversely from the ornamental plant container, not only is irrigation easier, but it is also possible to check with the drawer open whether damage has occurred to the then partially visible root system of the ornamental plant or ornamental plants are.
- an attachment designed as a container or absorbent body or an upper, separated area of the ornamental plant container itself can be provided for the ornamental plant container to accommodate an additional liquid supply which can be dispensed to the substrate via a drip or wick.
- care must of course be taken to ensure that this container does not interfere with plant growth.
- you can also attach a separate container for the casting liquid with spacers to the ornamental plant container and connect to the receiving space of the ornamental plant container via thin hoses, wicks or the like.
- a suitable type of irrigation is particularly advantageous for relatively large ornamental plant arrangements. If there is an irrigation system for ornamental plants at all, the ornamental plant arrangement according to the invention will advantageously be connected to this system.
- the liquid can be dispensed from above via a drip or wick, or the liquid level in a lower receiving space can be kept constant by the irrigation system.
- the ornamental plant container is designed as a rotational body, in particular tubular, which is divided transversely via partition walls and can be placed on the stump with a neck which is open at the bottom. With a corresponding arrangement or growth form of the ornamental plants, this container is covered by these ornamental plants essentially against view, so that the impression actually arises that the ornamental plants have sprouted from the stump.
- any materials, in particular plastic can be used for the production of the ornamental plant container, in which case inserts or calibration approaches can also be used in order to adapt the inside diameter of the nozzle to the respective trunk stump diameter.
- the container can be secured by connecting pieces and pins or nails penetrating the upper stump area.
- the ornamental plant container consists of a bamboo tube divided by transverse walls.
- the ornamental plant container can have the basic shape of an upwardly open spherical shell, which rests on a likewise cup-shaped, attached to the trunk stump support. Further details and advantages of the subject matter of the invention can be found in the following description of the drawings.
- the subject matter of the invention is illustrated in the drawing, for example. 1 shows an ornamental plant arrangement according to the invention schematically in FIG.
- Fig. 2 shows a longitudinal section through the upper part of the arrangement according to Fig. 1 when using other ornamental plants and Fig. 3 in the diagram another ornamental plant container with its support in section.
- the ornamental plant arrangement consists of a plant container 1 in which a stump 2 of a living wood plant is rooted, this living wood plant being cut off to the stump height shortly before the ornamental plants are put on.
- a tubular ornamental plant container 3 in its basic form, that is to say a body of revolution, which is placed downwards on the stump 2 by means of a connection piece 4 formed by the lower pipe end and secured by transverse pins 5.
- a drawer 6 is guided in the ornamental plant container 3, which serves as a container for a liquid, in particular water or a nutrient substrate.
- a permeable nonwoven bag contains a plant substrate 7, the composition of which depends on the particular needs of the ornamental plants used, this bag 7 being immersed with its lower end 8 as a suction attachment into the liquid contained in the drawer 6.
- the bag is covered by a layer of moss 9, through which grow one or more ornamental plants 10 rooted in the substrate, which according to FIG. 1 represent a crown indicated only in their outlines there.
- the container 3 can consist of a bamboo tube.
- a plant container having the basic shape of a spherical shell 12 is used to form a widely protruding vegetation, for example simulating a crown roof, which rests on a shell-shaped support 13 which can be attached to the trunk stump.
- the height or the diameter of the plant containers 3, 12 depends, on the one hand, on the diameters of the woody plants available, which provide the stumps 2 and on the other hand according to the ornamental plants used and in particular the amount and the depth of the substrate layer to be made available in the bag 7. It is also possible to partially fill the container 3, 12 with an absorbent material and to make a recess therein for storing the substrate. Other possible variations have already been mentioned in the introductory part of the description.
