The present disclosure relates to a propagation container comprising a circumferential wall, which bounds at least two cavities arranged next to one another, each cavity having a center longitudinal axis and the cavities being open to each other along part of the lateral circumferential surface thereof, wherein each cavity has an upper access opening and a bottom, between which upper access opening and bottom of each cavity run at least two retaining ribs that extend substantially vertically and are spaced from each other in the circumferential direction, which retaining ribs protrude radially from the circumferential wall into the associated cavity and define a cylindrical or conical frustrum-shaped accommodating opening centered at the center longitudinal axis of the associated cavity, and the mutual distance of the center longitudinal axes is dimensioned in such a way that the lateral circumferential surfaces of the accommodating openings touch or overlap.
