The plant pot has a bottom surface with a plurality of drainage holes therethrough, and the saucer has a plurality of radially spaced-apart upward projections therefrom to engage selected ones of the drainage holes. The bottom surface of the plant pot has a raised central portion having an inner diamet er corresponding approximately to the diameter of an imaginary circle defined b y radially outermost points of the upward projections from the saucer, thereby facilitating axial alignment of the saucer relative to the plant pot. The upward projections have radially outwardly extending flanges adjacent distal ends thereof, the flanges being configured so as to extend slightly above and slightly radially outwardly from the selected ones of the drainage holes when installed, so as to provide snap-on securing of the saucer to the plant pot. Preferably, the saucer has a plurality of radially spaced-apart recesses extending upwardly from its bottom surface, positioned to accommodate the upward projections of another identic al saucer when the saucers are stacked together. This significantly reduces the height of a stack of saucers, for easier and more economical shipping and handling.
