Italian term or phrase:giardiniera

Science - Botany
Italian term or phrase: giardiniera
From a catalogue for a plant nursery. This is a type of product designed for sale in garden centres, according to the catalogue.

The whole sentence is:

"Molteplicità di mezzi fusti, mini fusti, giardiniere e spalliere."

'Spalliera' I think is 'espalier' (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Espalier), so I imagine 'giardiniera' is something similar...Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!
