  • Patent number: 7428798
    Abstract: A plant pot having a wider base than throat and which can be vertically separated into two substantially identical pieces is provided. The plant pot preferably comprises a first pot member and a second pot member that are capable of engaging and disengaging each other. Complementary edges on the first pot member and the second pot member allow such members to define a substantially continuous inner wall when the first pot member and the second pot member are engaged. At least one retainer extends about an outer surface of the plant pot to retain the first pot member and the second pot member in an engaged position. In one embodiment, the first pot member and the second pot member are identical such that they are manufactured from the same mold thereby reducing manufacturing costs and simplifying production of such plant pot.
