摘要：
A plant container is provided which is designed to be inserted within the slot of a hydroponic tower, where the hydroponic tower includes both a matrix media and a moisture and nutrient transport system (e.g., a wicking strip). The plant container includes (i) a plant cup configured to hold a plant's root structure along with a small portion of plant growth media； (ii) an insertion blade that insures that as the plant container is inserted into the hydroponic tower slot, the matrix media and the associated wicking strips are pushed to either side of the plant cup； and (iii) a handling member that aids container insertion and removal, and which may include an alignment surface that insures that the plant container is fully inserted and aligned during the insertion procedure.
