Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of flower pots, in particular to a multifunctional flower pot for planting Phalaenopsis. Background Art

[0002] The Phalaenopsis orchid (Phalaenopsis amabilis), a member of the Orchidaceae family, is named for its graceful, butterfly-like flowers. A rare tropical orchid, it is known as the "Queen of Orchids." Phalaenopsis flowers are large and vibrant, boasting a rich variety of colors, including purple, pure white, crimson, and light yellow, with some varieties boasting bi- or tri-colors. Even more remarkable is their abundance and long flowering period. A single foot-long peduncle can bear up to 15 flowers, each of which can remain in bloom for sixty to seventy days. Consequently, the Phalaenopsis orchid is beloved by people worldwide.

[0003] Phalaenopsis orchids are drought-intolerant and, due to their aerial nature, are also sensitive to waterlogging. Their roots cannot tolerate excessive moisture for extended periods, and are particularly susceptible to rot if surrounded by liquid water for extended periods. Due to this drought-intolerant and waterlogged nature, frequent watering is often recommended, alternating between dry and wet periods to reduce the incidence of root rot and disease. However, this frequent watering regimen places a significant workload on home cultivation and care. Failure to adhere to this frequent watering regimen can ultimately lead to the plant's demise. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the fact that Phalaenopsis is not drought-tolerant and is afraid of waterlogging, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a multifunctional flowerpot for planting Phalaenopsis, which can replace high-frequency watering by automatic watering, thereby reducing the workload of Phalaenopsis cultivation.

[0020] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] See also Figure 1-Figure 5 The present invention discloses a multifunctional flowerpot for growing Phalaenopsis orchids. The flowerpot comprises two layers, an outer pot 1 and an inner pot 2. The inner pot 2 is removably mounted within the inner cavity of the outer pot 1. The inner pot 2 is used for growing Phalaenopsis orchids. A base 3 is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the outer pot 1. The base 3 defines a water storage chamber 4. A first through-hole 7 communicating with the inner cavity of the outer pot 1 is formed at the top of the base 3. A second through-hole 14 is formed at the bottom of the inner pot 2. A water-absorbing cotton rope 6 is installed within the inner pot 2, passing through the first and second through-holes 7 and 14. A ventilation chamber 8 is formed between the outer pot 1 and the inner pot 2. The outer wall of the inner pot 2 defines a first air vent 9, and the outer wall of the outer pot 1 defines a second air vent 10. This flowerpot facilitates automatic water replenishment during the cultivation of Phalaenopsis orchids by pre-filling the water storage chamber 4 with water and transferring the water from the water storage chamber 4 upward to the planting medium in the inner pot 2 using the water-absorbing cotton rope 6. In addition, when the inner pot 2 is placed in the inner cavity of the outer pot 1, the first air hole 9 and the second air hole 10 are connected to the ventilation cavity 8. By setting the ventilation cavity 8 and coordinating the first air hole 9 and the second air hole 10, it is beneficial to improve the air permeability of the flower pot.

[0022] Specifically, the inner wall of the outer basin 1 is fixedly connected to an inner convex edge 11, and the top outer wall of the inner basin 2 is provided with an outer convex edge 12, and the inner basin 2 is placed on the inner convex edge 11 via the outer convex edge 12. In this embodiment, the bottom inner wall of the outer basin 1 can be fixedly connected to an upwardly arched protrusion, so that the protrusion contacts the bottom of the inner basin 2 to support the inner basin 2.

[0023] Specifically, a water supply pipe 5 communicating with the inner cavity of the base 3 is installed on one side of the base 3, and a transparent observation window 18 is provided on the base 3. In this embodiment, the transparent observation window 18 is used to observe the water level in the water storage cavity 4.

[0024] It should be noted that the principle of fertilizing Phalaenopsis is "thin fertilizer, frequent application." Generally, a thin compound liquid fertilizer is applied every 15 days or so, which can be combined with manual watering. After fertilizing several times, the orchid pot and plant should be rinsed with large amounts of water to prevent residual inorganic salts from harming the roots. Therefore, when fertilizing, the plant is no longer automatically replenished with water through the absorbent cotton rope 6 and the water storage chamber 4. Instead, the compound liquid fertilizer is directly applied to the cultivation medium in the inner pot through manual watering. In addition, Phalaenopsis is very sensitive to low temperatures. If the temperature is below 15°C for a long time, it will stop growing. If it is below 10°C, the plant will stop absorbing water due to physiological water shortage and die. However, be careful not to place the flowers directly on or too close to the radiator. When the temperature is high in summer, it is necessary to cool down and pay attention to ventilation. If the temperature is above 32°C, Phalaenopsis usually enters a semi-dormant state.

[0025] Specifically, a seepage hole 13 is formed at the bottom of the inner basin 2, and a drainage hole 19 is formed on the outer wall of the bottom end of the outer basin 1. In this embodiment, a gap is left between the bottom of the inner basin 2 and the bottom inner wall of the outer basin 1. When the Phalaenopsis orchid planted in the inner basin 2 is manually watered instead of being moistened by the absorbent cotton rope 6 and the water storage chamber 4, if the artificial watering is excessive, the excess water can seep into the gap between the bottom of the inner basin 2 and the bottom inner wall of the outer basin 1 through the seepage hole 13. The provision of the drainage hole 19 can appropriately drain the water in the gap between the bottom of the inner basin 2 and the bottom inner wall of the outer basin 1.

[0026] Specifically, a groove 16 is formed at the bottom of the base 3, and notches 17 are formed on both sides of the outer wall of the base 3 to cooperate with the groove 16. An overflow pipe 15 is installed in the water storage chamber 4 to cooperate with the groove 16. In this embodiment, when the water level in the water storage chamber 4 is higher than the height of the top of the overflow pipe 15, excess water in the water storage chamber 4 can be discharged through the overflow pipe 15.

[0027] Phalaenopsis is a tropical epiphytic orchid that is heat-loving and shade-tolerant, making it suitable for ventilated and humid environments. In home cultivation, the correct cultivation method should be mastered according to its habit. Phalaenopsis has many aerial roots, so during cultivation, it is required that the roots be well ventilated. The potting medium must be loose, well-drained, and breathable. Large amounts of soil cannot be used; dry moss, bark, charcoal, vermiculite, etc. are available, and dry moss is especially effective. When the medium ages, it should be replaced in due time; otherwise, the air permeability deteriorates, causing root rot, weakening plant growth, and even killing the plant. In addition, Phalaenopsis is naturally found epiphytically on tall branches in tropical rainforests, sheltered by the shade of trees. Therefore, during cultivation, it is best to avoid direct sunlight, as this can burn the leaves over a large area. However, it is also intolerant to excessive shade indoors, which can cause slow growth and be detrimental to nutrient storage and flowering. Especially before and after the flowering period, appropriate light can promote the flowering of Phalaenopsis, and it is generally placed indoors in a scattered light location, such as on a balcony or windowsill facing north or east.

[0028] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
