Zusammenfassung: | The present invention concerns a hydro planter comprising an inner container which can accommodate a substrate, an absorption medium and an outer container. The inner container has one or more grids that enable liquid to filter from the inner container to the outer container. The absorption medium has at least one conductive element that is located in the substrate within the inner container and the conductive element is also located in the outer container, and the absorption medium also has a flattened portion which extends with the inner container. Finally, the outer container has two or more legs which enable the outer container to be supported on a surface and which form a gap through which air or water can flow, and the hollow interior of each leg forms a tank for storing a liquid, inside of which the lower portion of the conductive element is received. Thus, the hydro planter can receive plants, store liquid, supply said liquid to the plants, avoid spills, be adapted to concrete surfaces, to green flat roofs, to a modular system comprising a plurality of hydro planters, or a combination thereof; said hydro planter can improve thermal insulation and have a configuration that facilitates the transportation thereof, and can be manufactured with recyclable materials and low manufacturing costs. |
