Abstract: The receptacle embodying the invention comprises an elastically deformable tubular element prolonged by a tubular portion so as to enable it to be turned upwards in order to constitute an annular pan beneath the receptacle that can be assimilated with a saucer. This foot is further equipped with a hinging means designed to enable the foot to be deformed, by having at least two stable annular pan-shaped conformations, according to a bistable conformation process with reversal of concavity, after passing two fulcrums. This receptacle can be used as a horticultural pot.
