ABSTRACT:
A lidded container for growing, transporting and storing nursery plants. The container assembly comprises in combination an open-topped container dimensioned to receive the root structure of a plant and a lid which fits within the open top of the container. The lid has a central opening dimensioned to receive the stem or trunk of a plant and a radial slot of predetermined width communicating the opening with the exterior. A slide block or other closure is mountable in the slot. It slidably engages the slot margins when the lid is in its operative position, closing the open top of the container. Frictional interengaging means, such as a plurality of parallel, closely-spaced ribs on the upper inner margin of the container, releasably maintains the top in the closed condition of the container.
