Abstract

An artificial plant assembly is provided that can be broken down into component parts for efficient shipping. The artificial plant assembly includes a planter, an outer pot secured within the planter, an inner pot having an artificial plant supported therein and wherein the inner pot is securable within the outer pot.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An artificial plant assembly comprising: an outer pot; an inner pot; an artificial plant secured in the inner pot; and the inner and outer pots being configured such that the inner pot seats in the outer pot and wherein the outer pot substantially surrounds the inner pot. 
     
     
         2 . The artificial plant assembly of  claim 1  including a securing mechanism that interfaces with the inner and outer pots to secure the inner and outer pots together. 
     
     
         3 . The artificial plant assembly of  claim 1  wherein both the inner and outer pots include a bottom and wherein there is provided hook and loop fasteners for securing the inner pot to the outer pot and wherein the hook and loop fasteners are disposed on an inner surface of the bottom of the outer pot and on an outer surface of the bottom of the inner pot. 
     
     
         4 . The artificial plant assembly of  claim 1  further including a planter and wherein the outer pot is seated within the planter. 
     
     
         5 . The artificial plant assembly of  claim 4  including a securing mechanism associated with the inner and outer pots for securing the inner and outer pots together. 
     
     
         6 . An artificial plant assembly comprising: an outer pot; an inner pot; an artificial plant secured in the inner pot; and the inner and outer pots being configured such that the inner pot seats in the outer pot and wherein the outer pot substantially surrounds the inner pot; a planter;
 and wherein the outer pot is secured within the planter.   
     
     
         7 . The plant assembly of  claim 6  further including a securing mechanism associated with both the outer and inner pots for securing the outer and inner pots together. 
     
     
         8 . The artificial plant assembly of  claim 7  wherein the securing mechanism includes hook and loop fasteners disposed on an inner surface of the outer pot and on an outer surface of the inner pot. 
     
     
         9 . An artificial plant assembly comprising: an inner pot; an outer pot; an artificial plant secured in the inner pot and projected outwardly therefrom; the inner and outer pots configured such that the inner pot is inserted into the outer pot and wherein the outer pot includes a surrounding wall structure that surrounds the inner pot; the outer pot having a bottom which includes an inner surface; the inner pot having a bottom having an outer surface; and hook and loop fasteners secured to the inner surface of the bottom of the outer pot and to the outer surface of the bottom of the inner pot so as to secure the inner and outer pots together. 
     
     
         10 . The artificial plant assembly of  claim 9  further including a planter and wherein the outer pot is secured in the planter such that the plant assembly includes the planter, the outer pot, the inner pot, and the artificial plant in the inner pot.
