Claim:
A plant container assembly comprising two detachably connectable enclosure sections, the assembly comprising attachment elements adapted to secure open distal ends of the enclosure sections in the direction of the height of the container, wherein, in an assembled condition, the attachment elements are located internally of the assembly, wherein the attachment elements comprise a resilient member having a barbed portion on one enclosure section and a support surface and an aperture provided with the other enclosure section which surface is adapted to support the barbed portion of the resilient member, and which aperture is configured to allow the resilient member to pass therethrough, wherein the barbed portion is provided at a free end portion on one side of the member and a rib portion is provided at an opposite end portion on an opposite side of the resilient member, and in an attached condition, the rib portion engaged with a retaining surface portion which defines the aperture so as to urge and laterally deflect the barbed portion into engagement with the support surface and rims defining the open distal ends of the enclosure sections comprise location elements which comprise an arcuate channel on one rim and an arcuate protrusion on the other rim, wherein in the attached condition the protrusion is received in the channel so as to substantially restrict relative lateral movement of the sections.
