ABSTRACT:
A dish-shaped base is placed under and forms a reservoir for receiving excess liquid from a planter of the type having a centrally located bottom drain. The base includes a centrally disposed socket which projects into the drain to center the planter and base, and a plurality of ribs radiating outwardly from the socket and forming a seat to support the planter in a spaced relation with the bottom wall of the base. In addition to forming a seat for the planter, the ribs simultaneously reinforce the base and buttress the socket. An elongate, rod-like plant support of manually variable length is adapted for insertion vertically through the soil within the planter and into releasable engagement with the socket; the socket restraining the plant support against tilting under the influence of transversely applied pressure, as when a plant or branch is tied thereto.
