Abstract
A hanging flower pot includes a hanger and a drip tube in the bottom so that a plurality of pots can be hung vertically and water will drip downwardly from the drip tube rather than from the outer edge of the flower pot. The hanger extends across the drip tube, and a second pot can be supported below the first pot by a hanger so that the water which drips from the upper pot falls into the lower pot. Each of the hangers can be secured inside of the lower pot or can be provided with an upwardly curved drip portion to prevent water from running down the hanger to the outside of the lower pot.
Claims9
A flower pot having a side wall, an open top, a bottom wall, a drip tube extending through the bottom wall and having a lower edge positioned below the portion of the bottom wall surrounding the drip tube whereby water flowing from the pot through the drip tube will drip downwardly from the lower edge of the drip tube, and a rod extending across the drip tube for supporting a second flower pot below the drip tube of the first flower pot.
A pair of flower pots adapted for hanging in a generally vertically extending line, each of the flower pots having a side wall, an open top, a bottom wall, and a drip tube extending through the bottom wall and having a lower edge positioned below the portion of the bottom wall surrounding the drip tube whereby water flowing from the pot through the drip tube will drip downwardly from the lower edge of the drip tube, and means extending from the drip tube of one of the flower pots to the other flower pot for connecting the flower pots for hanging said other flower pot below said one flower pot whereby water dripping downwardly from the drip tube of the upper pot will fall into the open top of the lower pot.
A flower pot having a side wall, an open top, a bottom wall, and a drip tube extending through the bottom wall and having a lower edge positioned below the portion of the bottom wall surrounding the drip tube whereby water flowing from the pot through the drip tube will drip downwardly from the lower edge of the drip tube, the bottom wall including a central dome-shaped portion through which the drip tube extends and an outer edge portion, the lower edge of the drip tube terminating above the outer edge portion of the bottom wall whereby the flower pot can be supported on a surface by the bottom wall without interference from the drip tube.
