ABSTRACT:
A protective enclosure for plants is disclosed which is particularly adapted in one mode for young plants that are disposed in rows and is easily converted to a protective mode which provides protection for larger plants and/or a support upon which plants may climb or be tied. The protective enclosure mode structure includes a row of spaced generally flat frame members which have a horizontal portion and downwardly extending lateral leg portions for insertion into the ground. Openings are disposed within the frame members to receive upper and/or lateral elongated supports which support the frame members in parallel spaced relationship without interfering with the outer surface of the frame members which serve to support a cover which is transparent to sunlight. The frame members are provided with clamps for releasably securing the cover about the frames and in ground engaging contact. The elongated supports also serve as conduits for fluids to be delivered to the plants. The frame members are provided with slots to permit easy stacking to convert the frame members to the protective mode structure.
