[origin: GB2604112A] An apparatus for maintaining a plant P, the apparatus comprising a screen 2 configured to train the growth of a plant engaged therewith; a support 3 for holding the plant beneath the screen such that, in use, the plant engages the screen and a root base R of the plant is disposed beneath the support, and a lifting mechanism 5 operatively connected to the support and the screen. The lifting mechanism is configured to lift the screen and the support from a first position to a second position so as to at least partially extract the root base from an external reservoir 4 arranged to receive the root base. The screen and support are held at a predetermined distance D when moving from the first position to the second position.
