As a container plant different plant genera and species are referred to, which can be optimally grown in planters and not rely on planting in a large bed or garden. In principle, it is possible to breed any classical potted plant as a container plant and let grow in an attractive planter, in horticulture, however, such plants are referred to as potted plants that no longer find their place in a simple flowerpot due to their size. Most of the potted plants marketed in modern horticulture have their roots in the tropical and subtropical regions of the world, allowing them to survive indoors, conservatories and terraces. Most of these potted plants are cultivated as succulents or as hydroponic plants and receive sufficient nutrients through this special care, even if they are not kept in the native climate. Already many centuries ago plants of this species came to Europe and were mainly cultivated in the Mediterranean, which was accompanied by the antique production of vases and bowls. The renowned production of Italian terracotta and other natural vessels also led to a rapid planting and to a specific search for flowers, shrubs or palms, which could thrive optimally in such a vessel. The most well-known potted plants include the boxwood, the vicus or the pomegranate tree. Basically, numerous, native deciduous and coniferous trees can be grown in pots, as the Japanese tradition of bonsai shows as a modification of European potted plants.
