Abstract

A planting aid product comprising a container comprising an annular compartment for water with a downwardly tapering outer wall and an upwardly tapering inner wall defining a central open channel, where in use a plant is positioned. The upwardly tapering inner wall and the downwardly tapering outer wall are composed of a biodegradable pulp. The upwardly tapering inner wall is more water permeable than the downwardly tapering outer wall. The difference in water permeability of the inner and outer wall is at least in part a result of a lower solid density expressed in weight per volume of the biodegradable pulp material of the inner wall or parts of the inner wall as compared to the solid density of the outer wall.

Abstract

An apparatus for planting a seedling (3) in an arid area comprises a vertical, downwardly tapering shroud (20) and a seedling plug (1) comprising a body of growing medium covered by a moisture resistant cap (14) which preferably is sealingly received in a lower region (22) of the shroud. The lower region of the shroud surrounding the upper portion of the seedling is buried beneath ground level (51) with at least one water reservoir (40, 200) and supplied with water via capillary wicks (43), the reservoir being buried beneath ground level and covered by a moisture resistant cover (60) which sealingly surrounds the shroud. The shroud extends above ground level to protect and shade the seedling and together with the cap (14) and cover (60) serves to retain moisture in the planting region for the first year of growth.
