Abstract
A planter adapted for circling an umbrella pole and resting upon a patio table top includes a large pot divided into two halves of identical geometry, and a drip tray similarly divided into two halves of identical geometry. Features are provided to lock each drip tray half into a corresponding pot half. Additional features allow each pot half to interlock to another, thereby forming a complete planter. The planter halves are separable and may be interchanged with other planter halves of the same geometry.
