Abstract: A greeting card assembly comprised of a plurality of transparent side walls and a transparent back panel, all of which are integrally formed or connected. A greeting card is adapted to be folded over the back panel so as to be visible when viewed from the front of the assembly, with the greeting card being hinged at one end so that it can be opened away from the back panel. The back panel is formed with a hinged panel which permits access to the interior of the assembly. A potted plant and a supporting water container can be inserted through such opening, with a protective sleeve extending upwardly from the pot and around the foliage and flowers of the plant. The upper edge of the sleeve is retained in position to prevent vertical upward movement of the pot, container, and sleeve. The entire assembly provides not only an attractive display of the plant, but also provides a greeting card visible through the transparent panels, with the card being unfolded for reviewing more intimate greetings or messages.

Abstract: A plant watering container comprised of lower and upper mating container sections. The top wall of the upper section is formed with a central opening for supporting a pot, with a wick extending into the growing media in the bottom of the pot and downwardly into the water reservoir provided by the lower container section. The upper container section is formed with beveled side edges similar in angularity to the normal droop angle of plant leaves, whereby the beveled surfaces form supporting surfaces for the leaves. The container is very inexpensive to manufacture and provides a simple bottom watering device utilizing capillary action for the watering of plants in very small pots.
