A planter made of PLA, a compostable resin with an element of kelp or a natural fertilizer added in molding. The planter has a crown shaped top edge, the mild points of which serve as a deterrent to animals walking on or eating the plant. The planter has slotted sidewalls in the base area that serve as a vent for water flow and for root expansion when directly planted into the ground. The container body is composed of a 100% organic compostable material. The body can be formed as a blend of 30 to 50% organic plastic with the remaining portion being composed of compostable organic material.
