Claim:
A flowerpot ( 1 ) made of plastic, said flowerpot comprising a bottom ( 7 ) provided with hollow bottom regions forming a planar bottom engagement surface to rest directly on a supporting surface and holes to join an interior of the hollow bottom regions to the environment, wherein the holes ( 12 , 13 ) are formed at least partially in the bottom regions ( 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ) at the engagement surface and rest on the supporting surface without any spacers for distancing and are permeated by channels ( 14 , 15 ) that lead out to the edges of the bottom, and wherein one of the channels extends in two opposite directions from one of the holes to the edges of the bottom so that continuity of a horizontal passage formed by the channel ensures ventilation with a free horizontal exchange of air through the bottom of the hole and the channel and has a height at least equal to half the width of the channel to ensure simultaneous exchange of air and water.
