Abstract:
1. A plant container for planting a plant with soil, comprising: a container body which has a plant cavity for containing a predetermined amount of soil to cultivate the plant; and an automate watering arrangement which comprises a reserve unit and a plurality of watering units, wherein said reserve unit is provided at said container body for reserving a predetermined amount of water, each of said watering units having a guiding element extended from said reserve unit and a watering element for being selectively submerged into the soil at a particular area of said plant cavity, wherein said guiding element is adapted for guiding the water from said reserve unit, wherein said watering element is adapted for guiding the water from said guiding element flowing to said particular area of said plant cavity and for watering the soil at the particular area of said plant cavity so as to maintain a moisture level of the soil, wherein one end of each of said guiding elements is provided at a bottom of said reserve unit while another end of said guiding element is coupled with said respective watering element end-to-end, wherein said watering element is downwardly extended from said guiding element for being selectively submerged into the soil at said particular area of said plant cavity, wherein said watering element is made of water permeating material for guiding the water in said reserve unit to flow to said watering element and to water the soil at said particular area of said plant cavity via said watering element, wherein said container body comprises an outer case and an inner case, wherein said outer case has an outer case wall and an outer case bottom, wherein said inner case has an inner case wall, wherein said inner case wall is extended from an upper end of said inner case bottom inwardly and upwardly to define a reserve cavity between said outer case and said inner case, wherein said outer case wall is extended from said outer case bottom upwardly to define said plant cavity for containing the soil and roots of the plant therein, wherein said reserve unit comprises a first reserve element for reserving said predetermined amount of water, wherein said first reserve element of said reserve unit provided at a bottom of said first reserving element has a higher elevation above said outer case bottom of said outer case than said elevation above said outer case bottom of said outer case which a top surface of the soil in said plant cavity has, wherein one end of said guiding element is couples with said first reserve element of said reserve unit at said bottom thereof, and another end of said guiding element is coupled with said watering element end-to-end.
