Plant growing assembly

A plant growing assembly comprising a first housing adapted to retain water therein, said first housing having an opening in an upper surface thereof, a second housing adapted to retain a plant therein, said opening being shaped complementarily to said second housing and being adapted to receive and retain said second housing therein, a frame disposed in said first housing for supporting said second housing at the bottom of said second housing at a position removed from the bottom of said first housing, said frame having a first hole therein in alignment with said opening, a water transfer element extending through a second hole in the bottom of said second housing and said first hole and interconnecting the interior of said first housing proximate the bottom thereof and the interior of said second housing proximate the bottom thereof, to transfer water in said first housing to said plant in said second housing, and a top disposed on said second housing, said top comprising a planar top surface having an elongated opening therein, a first cover member slidably disposed between first and second tracks on said top, said tracks being disposed on opposite lengthwise sides of said elongated opening and in parallel coextensive arrangement, said first cover member being slidably movable over said elongated opening in said tracks, said first cover member having a first recess on a first edge thereof facing a central portion of said second housing, and a second cover member slidably disposed over said elongated opening between said tracks and having a second edge thereof opposed to said first edge and having a second recess therein in alignment with and complementary to said first recess, said first and second recesses forming a third hole upon abutment of said first and second edges, the third hole being adapted to be disposed about said plant, said cover members being adapted for slidable movement in said tracks apart from each other to accommodate growth of said plant, and stop means at the ends of said tracks to restrict movement of said cover members to positions within the perimeter of said planar top surface.
