The present invention provides a flower pot which may be easily opened to facilitate placing or removing of the potted plant therein. The flower pot has at least one of the sidewall divided into two sidewall portions, and an opposing sidewall is provided with a hinge arrangement to allow for separating the two sidewall portions from each other, such that a front of the flower pot is opened for convenient placing or removing of the potted plant inside therein as desired without damaging the plant. Further, a locking arrangement is provided to hold together the two sidewall portions after the transplantation operation has been performed.
