The nursery container includes a bottom, a side wall extending upward from the bottom, and a lip formed on an upper portion of the side wall. A first attachment component formed on the nursery container, preferably on the container lip. The first attachment component mates with a second attachment component for attaching an ancillary or attachable item to the nursery container. In one embodiment of the invention the first attachment component extends through a hole formed in the nursery container and includes a base located on an inside surface of the nursery container. A retaining flange is formed on the first attachment component at a location adjacent the outside surface of the container.
