Abstract
A stack type plant-pot is divided into radially extending pot portions by means of partitions. Each plant-pot includes radially extending pot portions of a similar shape. The pot portions are stacked crisscross with those of another plant-pot embodying the present invention, thus providing wider cultivation areas. The plant-pot of the present invention has a wider upper periphery and a narrower lower periphery and has stacking features, for example, an upper stepped portion and a lower extension. With this arrangement, the amount of yield and cultivation may be increased within a limited area.

- partition means for vertically separating interior portions of said plant pot portions from each other, said partition means intersecting said joined edges of said plant pot portions;
- upper stepped portions formed at an upper edge of said partition means;
- and
- a lower extension depending vertically from a bottom peripheral end of each of said plurality of plant pot portions, said lower extension including notched areas formed therein and diagonally offset from the joined edges of said plant pot portions;
