<p>A biodegradable pot (10) of castellated design such that a vertical groove (11) is formed in each external wall, with a corresponding vertical rib (12) being defined by the internal wall, the internal vertical ribs (12) serving to partially separate adjacent columnar spaces (14) and prevent root coiling. A central columnar tap root space (15) extends to the base wall (16) of the pot which comprises an elevated inner surface (17) supported on footings (18) in each corner which raise the inner surface (17) of the pot (10) off the ground thereby facilitating drainage through drainage apertures (19). Horizontal slots (20) are formed in the walls adjacent to the base wall (16), whereby root growth appears through these slots (20) or apertures as a visual indication that the plant should be re-potted.</p> |
