    Abstract: A transplant pot for plants that is formed when two identical pot halves are fastened together. The invention consists of three components; the main body of the invention where parts (side walls, guide tracks, gaskets and fastening mounts) are either molded or affixed to the main body, the fastening screws and the drainage dish which is not required for structural integrity but merely for growing medium drainage. When the two halves of the invention are joined by the screws being tightened through the fastening mounts, which are molded or affixed to the side walls and threaded, the rubber compound gaskets are compressed thus creating a tight seal. When the plant requires transplantation the screws are removed from the fastening mounts to allow the pot halves to be separated. This permits the rooted plant to be removed with minimal disturbance to the plant's root system and other structures.
