  • Patent number: 5526942
    Abstract: A floral stand designed to display flora in any desired orientation, including horizontally or upside down. The stand is constructed to secure flora requiring nutrient fluids and dried flora. When the storage of fluid is required, the stand comprises a reservoir portion having a plurality of walls in which one of these walls includes a precut aperture. A securing device, such as a grommet, is inserted through said precut aperture of said first wall in order to hermetically seal the reservoir portion by static or vacuum pressure. The securing device includes a perforation hole small enough to prevent leakage of fluid from the reservoir portion.With respect to dried flora, the floral stand includes at least one spring clip made of thin, flexible material in order to secure the flora stem between the spring clip and a face of the stand or alternatively, to secure the flora stem between multiple spring clips if present and directly opposite one another.

  • Patent number: 5301463
    Abstract: A floral stand which is designed to display flower or branch arrangements in any desired orientation, including horizontally or upside down. The stand is a hollow shell made of a light weight plastic material and formed into any pleasing shape desired for flower display. Inside the shell are located air-tight compartments for holding liquid nutrient. Each compartment includes a hole for insertion of a flower stem into it and a means to grip the stem tightly. The air-tight nature of the compartments, the stem gripping means and the relative difference in pressure between the inside of the water filled compartment and the outside air, prevent the possibility of any significant fluid leakage from the stand in any orientation and under normal handling conditions.

  • Patent number: 5216835
    Abstract: A floral rack, particularly designed to hold floral stand flower arrangements which relate to a prior invention. The rack has a multi-level configuration and may be hung on a wall peg through a hole at one end or placed horizontally on a shelf and a suitable surface or easily transported. The rack is light weight, being made of polystyrene sheet material. The multi-level rack has a long surface with a rim on three sides, and two or more trays mounted, spaced above the bottom surface. This permits a number of floral stand arrays to be loaded and held in position for separate access and removal by a customer, without disturbing other floral stands.

  • Patent number: 5195270
    Abstract: A floral stand which is designed to display flower or branch arrangements in any desired orientation, including horizontally or upside down. The stand is a hollow shell made of a light weight plastic material, and having inside it porous material pads designed to hold water and plant food solution. Curved spring clips hold the porous pads in place and grip the flower or branch stems inserted between the clips, preventing the flowers or branches from falling out of the stand when held at an angle or upside down. The shell may be shaped in any of a number of pleasing configurations suitable for floral display. In addition, to the spring clips which can secure moderate sized flower stems and branches, specially designed pincers made of plastic material may be inserted inside the shell near its rim, to aid in gripping any heavy flower stems.
