Pots, traditionally made of terracotta but now more commonly plastic, and windowbox es have been the most commonly seen. Small pots are commonly called flowerpot s. In some cases, this method of growing is used for ornamental purposes. This method is also useful in areas where the soil or climate is unsuitable for the plant or crop in question. Using a container is also generally necessary for houseplant s. Limited growing space, or growing space that is paved over, can also make this option appealing to the gardener . Many types of plants are suitable for the container, including decorative flowers, herbs , cactus cacti , vegetables , and small trees . There are many advantages to growing plants in containers, namely Less risk of soil borne disease Virtually eliminate weed problems Mobile plants gives more control over moisture, sunlight & temperature Containers range from simple plastic pots, teacups to complex automatic watering irrigation systems. This flexibility in design is another reason container gardening is popular with growers. They can be found on porches, front steps, and in urban locations, on rooftops.

Image Betel container.jpg thumb Betel container, 19th century V&A Museum no. IS.246&A 1964 The betel container is made of embossed gold and filigree work set with rubies and emeralds. It was made in Burma now Myanmar in the nineteenth century. It was designed to hold betel, a mild stimulant chewed throughout tropical Asia and traditionally made from areca nut s and lime wrapped in a betel leaf. The container is in the form of a mythical bird known as a karaweik . This has been an important motif in Burmese art since the seventh century, and was believed to possess the ideal qualities of purity and gentleness. It is chicken like in its appearance with its feet, curled wings, pointed beak, wealth of overlapping body feathers, curled wings and upturned tail. The waisted stand is decorated with panels of floral ornament and at each end a leaf shaped extension with foliage motifs, curved upwards to support the body of the stand. Although containers in this form are common enough in Myanmar, this particular object is of great historical significance since it formed part of the Burmese regalia used by the last king, Thibaw Min . The regalia was requisitioned by the British as indemnity at the end of the Third Burmese War in 1885 and remained under the custodianship of the Victoria and Albert Museum from 1886 until 1964, when they were returned to Myanmar. This container was given to the Museum by the Government and people of Myanmar in recognition of its care of the regalia.
