PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a plant container capable of sufficiently replacing air contained in potted soil.SOLUTION: A plant container has a container body 12 comprising a top part 11 which is open and a drain outlet 14 located at a bottom part 15, and a mesh plate 21 which divides the inside of the container body 12 into an upper potted soil chamber 22 and a lower air chamber 23. The mesh plate 21 forms a through-hole 24 for communicating between the potted soil chamber 22 and the air chamber 23. In addition, an opening/closing mechanism 30 operating in both open and closed states of the drain outlet 14 is installed on the outside of the container body 12 having the potted soil chamber 22 and the air chamber 23.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】用土中の空気を十分に入れ替えることが可能な植物用容器を提供する。【解決手段】上部11が開口されて底部15に排水口14を備える容器本体12と、容器本体12内を上側の用土室22と下側の空気室23とに区画するメッシュ板21とを有する。メッシュ板21には、用土室22と空気室23とを連通する貫通孔24が形成される。また、容器本体12の用土室22と空気室23との外側には、排水口14を閉塞する閉塞状態と排水口14を開放する開放状態とに作動する開閉機構30が設けられる。【選択図】図3
