To improve plant survival rates, control their growth range, and optimize root structure, root control containers are commonly used in modern landscaping projects. As a key cultivation tool, root control containers not only effectively limit the excessive elongation of the taproot and promote lateral root development, but also offer multiple advantages such as improved drainage and aeration, and ease of transplanting and transportation, thus playing a vital role in landscaping construction and maintenance.
[0003] Utility model patent CN212650150U discloses a root control container for garden plants. The connecting mechanism includes a first connecting strap and a second connecting strap fixed to both ends of the outer shell. One end of the first connecting strap is provided with a retainer, and one end of the retainer is provided with a first through hole that connects to the first connecting strap. Positioning grooves are provided on both the upper and lower sides of the retainer at the middle position, and the other end of the retainer has a sleeve opening that communicates with the positioning grooves. This structure is made of POM material, which has high hardness, wear resistance, and good flexibility, enabling more stable fixation of the root control container. Furthermore, to solve the problem of soil leakage from the bottom aeration plate, a non-woven fabric is laid on its upper surface to achieve good air permeability and prevent soil leakage.
[0004] Although the patent makes some improvements in assembly convenience and material selection, it still has obvious technical defects in actual use: the root control container uses a snap-fit connection structure to fix the outer shell, which is relatively simple during the installation phase, but it is not convenient for quick disassembly and replacement later, reducing maintenance efficiency. Secondly, the snap-fit structure is prone to wear or breakage after repeated disassembly and assembly, resulting in decreased connection stability and affecting the overall service life of the container.
[0005] Therefore, to address the shortcomings of existing technologies, we urgently need a root control container for garden plants to solve the aforementioned problems.

The base has an installation groove at the top center and an opening at the bottom of the installation groove. A ventilated plate is provided inside the installation groove. A support ring plate is provided at the top of the base near the inner ring. The bottom of the support ring plate is detachably connected to the top of the base.
[0008] The support ring plate has a notch on one side, and a positioning rod is fixedly connected to the top of the base at one end inside the notch. Both ends of the flexible shell are fixedly connected to a positioning structure that can be detachably connected to the side wall of the positioning rod. The outer ring of the flexible shell has several ventilation holes.
[0009] The opening has a central circular plate at its center, and several support rods are fixedly connected to the outer ring of the central circular plate. One end of each support rod is bolted to the inner wall of the opening.
[0010] The bottom of the support ring plate is fixedly connected to a positioning ring plate, and the positioning ring plate is fixedly connected to the top of the base with bolts.
[0011] The thickness of the vent plate is the same as the depth of the mounting groove, and the top of the vent plate has several vent grooves.
[0012] The outer ring of the support ring plate has several through slots, and the top two sides of the positioning ring plate are provided with positioning screws with one end threaded through the positioning ring plate. One end of the positioning screw is connected to the top of the base.
[0013] The positioning rod has insertion slots on both sides, and the flexible shell has insertion rods that are adapted to the insertion slots fixedly connected to both ends. The height of the positioning rod is greater than the height of the flexible shell.
[0014] This utility model discloses a root control container for garden plants.
