PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a flowerpot into which a relatively large plant such as a tree is planted, in which strength against load from a tree or the like and soil for planting the tree or the like is improved, and the growth of a planted tree or the like is not hindered as much as possible.SOLUTION: A flowerpot comprises: a bottom wall part 10 of a polygonal shape in plan view which defines a bottom part of an area in which a tree or the like is planted and a plurality of side wall parts 20 formed along a part of the periphery of the bottom wall part 10, in which the bottom wall part 10 and each side wall parts consist of a metal plate, a side on which the tree or the like is planted is used as inside, and recess parts 26 recessed in a curved surface from inside toward outside are formed on an inner side surface part 20a of each side wall part 20.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4【課題】樹木等の比較的大きな植物が植えられる植木鉢において、樹木等及び該樹木等を植えるための土壌からの荷重に対する強度を向上させるとともに、植えられた樹木等の成長を出来る限り妨げないようにする。【解決手段】樹木等が植えられる部分の底部を画定する平面視多角形状の底壁部10と、底壁部10の周縁の一部に沿って形成された複数の側壁部20とを備え、底壁部10及び各側壁部は、それぞれ金属板で構成され、樹木等が植えられる側を内側として、各側壁部20における内側面部20aには、内側から外側に向かって曲面状に凹んだ凹部26が形成されている。【選択図】図4
