    Abstract: An assembly of a pot for plants and an associated support wherein the pot defines a bottom wall and a surrounding side wall extending upwardly from the bottom wall. The support defines a horizontal surface upon which the bottom wall of the pot is positioned. Pin means extend upwardly from this horizontal surface, and at least one opening is defined by the bottom wall of the pot for receiving the pin means.

  • Patent number: 4408717
    Abstract: A fountain construction dispenses water in a pond or the like for aesthetic purposes. A feed line is located beneath the water surface, and a vertically extending feed pipe delivers water from the feed line to a dispensing nozzle at the upper end of the feed pipe. A pump having a connection with the feed line delivers the water under pressure. The feed line and associated feed pipe are shaped so that a lamp supporting bracket can be located at the juncture thereof. A lamp supported on the bracket emits a light beam axially relative to the feed pipe and nozzle whereby a particularly pleasing aesthetic effect is realized with minimum detraction from the beauty of the pond or the like resulting from the presence of the hardware in the pond.
