  • Patent number: 10492390
    Abstract: A system and device used to promote healthy growth and reduce damage to hydroponically grown flower bulbs during their transportation, storage and display. A transparent container is adapted and arranged with a support device and a snap-fit cover which act to reduce movement of fluids within the container in transit, thereby reducing spillage and minimizing damage to the flower bulbs. The support device contains a plurality of recessed inserts to secure flowers in an upright position and accommodate bulb growth without causing damage to the bulb. The snap-fit cover creates a reservoir chamber which prevents fluid from spilling out of the container if the container is tipped or subjected to unpredictable forces or motion during transportation. The hydroponic container is ready to be displayed and marketed as soon as it is shipped from the distributor, thereby minimizing retailer and consumer involvement and expenditure of time.
