Further, the gantry has a plurality of support rods which are vertically parallel to each other, and is used by hooking the hook portion, and the hook portion has an inverted U-shape suitable for the support rod. If the small protrusions are provided, by fitting the small protrusions to the support rods, the hooking portion is unlikely to come off, and the bottle can be reliably hooked on the rack. Further, when the small projection is hooked on the upper support rod, the lower part of the connecting member is held so that the bottle is held at an angle of 10 to 40 degrees so as to be inclined so as to project forward. Preferably, it is supported by a support rod below the gantry. With such a structure, the plant being cultivated can be hung on the pedestal in a state of protruding forward to form a more three-dimensional and deep flower bed. In addition, more bottles can be hung on the frame than when the bottles are upright, and the visible range of the bottles can be reduced, which is aesthetically superior. At this time, if the inclination above the bottle is too large, the soil and water in the bottle will flow out, so it is suitable to set the angle of inclination to 10 to 40 degrees, but for the appearance and ease of maintenance. In consideration, about 20 to about 40 degrees is more preferable, and an angle of 30 degrees is particularly preferable.
