Carrying tray (24) for propagation pots designed for use in the horticultural industry. The tray (24) is placed on top of a tray magazine in a dispensing apparatus with an overlying container magazine with a drawer between for the pots. The tray (24) is provided with grooves around the tray cavities (6) to prevent the outwardly projecting flanges of the pots rising above the tray (24). In order to facilitate removal of the pots the tray (24) has recesses (7) between the tray cavities (6). The recesses (7) can be in the form of channels which are either continuous between the tray cavities (6) or which are discontinued at intervals. The cross section of the channels may be rectangular, triangular or rounded off or be geometrically formed in a manner suitable for the purpose. The design of the pots which are dispensed on to the tray (24) must be such that they fit into the tray cavities (6). |
