A stackable and interconnectable stand used for supporting potting containers to prevent accidental toppling of potted plants is disclosed. The body of the stand is constructed of a wire lattice or flat bands, which has six radially extending legs between which the potting container is secured. Each leg has an upward (hip) bend, which forms an inner leg segment, and a downward return (knee) bend, which forms an outer leg segment. The inner leg segments diverge upwardly to define an area for restrictively receiving a potting container with the side walls of the container restrictively held secure against inner leg segments. The inner leg segments diverge upward at an angle such that the side walls of potting containers of various dimensions will be in restrictive contact with at least some portion of the inner leg segment to firmly support the potting container within the stand. The stands can be stackable atop one another to provide convenient storage of the stands when unused. The stands can also be interconnected to support multiple potting containers.
