Abstract
A garden assembly has a frame for separate removably supporting a plurality of open top troughs, one above the other. A separate horizontal distribution conduit is positioned above each trough, and a container adapted to be filled with water is disposed above the row of troughs. A separate tube connects the bottom of the trough removably to each of the conduits, so that the container is directly drained into each trough. The troughs have drain apertures in their bottoms positioned to drain each trough away from their respective lower troughs.
