ABSTRACT:
A container for nursery plants and the like formed of a blank of sheet material comprising a front panel, a back panel and two side panels interconnected along spaced fold lines. A front reinforcement panel is connected to the top of the front panel along a fold line for securing to the inner face of the front panel. A top closure panel is hingedly secured along a hinge line to the terminal end of the front reinforcement panel for extension into the tubular area defined by the front, back and side panels when secured together. Upstanding attachment tabs are attached to opposed sides of the top panel and a side reinforcement panel is connected to the top of each side panel along a fold line for securing to the inner face of its associated side panel. A top shoulder panel is hingedly secured to each of the side reinforcement panels along a hinge line, said shoulder panels adapted to overlie the top closure panel and the attachment tabs adapted for insertion between the side panels and the side reinforcement panels to provide an upper limit to movement of the top closure panel about the hinge line connecting the top closure panel to the terminal end of the front reinforcement panel.
