Plant container

A plant container molded from a thermoplastic polymer and comprising a generally tubular vertical wall, an integral bottom wall and a portion of a wall being of lesser thickness constituting a living hinge coextensive with the wall, the vertical wall having a slit along at least one side, an outwardly extending cylindroid bead integral with said vertical wall along one slit edge, the opposed slit edge having a cooperating cylindroid groove, the dimension between the lips of said groove being smaller than the diameter of said bead and adapted to receive said bead and form a liquid-tight separable closure, said living hinge permitting said bead to be withdrawn from said groove and said slit edges to be separated, said bottom wall having a centrally located drainage port therein and having at least one concentric circular area defined by a ring of lesser thickness than said bottom wall molded into said bottom wall whereby said circular area may be pressed from said bottom wall, a tubular base integral with and extending downwardly from said bottom wall, the tubular base having an annular flute in its exterior surface, the tubular base being adapted to be positioned in a cup-shaped tray having upwardly projecting sectors, the internal diameter of said sectors being greater than the external diameter of said tubular base, said sectors having a bead on the internal surface of said sectors, the beads being adapted to register with said flute in said base.
