A plant receptacle for use with an umbrella-type table having a generally horizontal table top and an umbrella mounted to an umbrella supporting member extending generally vertically through an aperture located in said table top is disclosed. The receptacle comprises a first, outer container, a second, inner container and a central sleeve. The first container is generally saucer shaped and has a side wall and a bottom wall. The bottom wall of the first container has a central aperture dimensioned to permit the umbrella supporting member to extend through such aperture. The sleeve extends upwardly from the bottom wall of the first container and is open at both ends and is internally dimensioned to permit the umbrella supporting member to extend through such sleeve. The second container is adapted to be positioned upon and within the first container and is generally bowl shaped and has a side wall and a bottom wall. The bottom wall of the second container has a central aperture dimensioned to permit the sleeve to extend through such aperture. The first and second containers and the sleeve are positioned concentrically, with the second container and the sleeve defining an upwardly facing annular cavity of sufficient volume for locating earth and implanting flowers and the like.
