Plant container drain insert

摘要

A drain insert for a plant container having a vertically disposed drain hole in the bottom portion thereof which permits proper drainage of excess fluids through the drain hole, while substantially eliminating the loss of potting medium through the drain hole. The drain insert includes a low profile body member having a plurality of first fluid flow passageways extending therethrough and a plurality of stabilizer members extending from the body member and positionable with the drain hole so that the body member is stabilized in a covering position a preselected distance above the drain hole. The stabilizer members cooperate to define a second fluid flow passageway having a substantially vertically disposed first portion and a plurality of substantially horizontally disposed second portions. The first and second portions of the second fluid flow passageway openly communicate so that fluid communication is established between the second fluid flow passageway and the first fluid flow passageways and fluid passing to the bottom portion of the container is discharged into the drain hole.
