Abstract
A carrier for bulbous plants on which the bulbs are disposed mutually adjacently according to a predetermined pattern, comprising a number of individual bulb holders for each bulb which are disposed in that pattern on the carrier, in addition to a liquid reservoir which belongs to each or a number of holders and which in use lies under the holders, wherein the or each liquid reservoir is provided with an overflow edge for defining the maximum liquid level in the reservoir. In preference the bulb holders are provided with fixation means for fixing the bulb. The fixation means are usually formed by protrusions, for instance pins, onto which the bulb is fixed. It is thus possible to keep constant the distance between the underside of the bulb and the water level, and use no longer has to be made of culture material and sand.
