A downwardly tapered soil holding portion of a height greater than the height of said front port is located below and within the depth of said plant display portion. The downwardly sloped rear wall of said display portion and said tapered soil holding portion being of a shape and cooperating to accommodate insertion of said planter through an opening in a wall generally corresponding to the front port with a clearance behind the wall generally equal to the maximum depth of said display portion. In an aspect of the invention, a frame is provided contained within the port of the planter and extending outwardly from the port. The frame may be integrally formed with the port.
