This invention relates to a medium that is suitable for storing, transporting and/or growing a plant (106), comprising: a mass of crimped intermixed cellulose paper strips (102), each of said strips (102) having a narrow width, elongated longitudinally compressed length, and a plurality of transverse folds over the length thereof to provide said strips (102) with a longitudinally compressed construction; said paper strips (102) having a plant growth-enhancing material adhered to their surface. In one embodiment, the inventive medium is made by a process comprising: treating a sheet of paper with a plant growth-enhancing material; cutting the sheet of paper into a plurality of paper strips (102) having narrow widths and elongated lengths; crimping the paper strips (102) to form a plurality of transverse folds over the length of said strips and provide said strips with a longitudinally compressed construction; and intermixing said strips (102) to form a mass of crimped intermixed cellulose paper strips treated with a plant growth- enhancing material.

Milieu se prêtant au stockage, au transport et/ou à la culture d'un végétal (106). Ce milieu comprend: une masse de bandes de papier de cellulose (102) crêpées et entremêlées. Chaque bande (102) est étroite, de grande longueur, comprimée dans le sens de la longueur et comporte une série de replis transversaux sur sa longueur ce qui permet de produire des bandes à structure comprimée dans le sens longitudinal. Chaque bande de papier (102) est revêtue sur sa surface d'un matériau favorisant la croissance d'un végétal. Dans un mode de réalisation, le milieu de l'invention est réalisé selon un procédé prévoyant les opérations suivantes: traitement d'une feuille de papier à l'aide d'un matériau favorisant la croissance des végétaux; découpage de la feuillle de papier en une pluralité de bandes de papier (102) de faible largeur et de grande longueur; crêpage des bandes de papier (102) de manière à obtenir une série de replis transversaux sur la longueur desdites bandes et à conférer à celles-ci une structure comprimée dans le sens de la longueur; entremêlage des bandes (102) pour obtenir une masse de bandes de papier de cellulose entremêlées traitées avec ce matériau favorisant la culture des végétaux.
