ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a container for packaging a flower having a stem communicating with a vial of nutrient, the vial including a lip and a body. The container comprises a generally hollow pedestal including a closed end, an open end opposite said closed end, and a sidewall extending generally obliquely between said closed end and said open end. The pedestal includes a support portion supportable by a support surface. The pedestal further includes an inner surface and an outer surface defined by the closed end and the sidewall. The outer surface includes a flange adapted to support the lip of the vial, with the body of the vial in the hollow of the pedestal, when said support portion is supported by the support surface. The container further includes a generally hollow, elongated sleeve having an open end adapted to be slideably joined in telescopic relation with respect to the pedestal to contain the flower and vial, the sleeve being removable relative to said pedestal so that said support portion can be supported by the support surface and the vial can be positioned with the flange supporting the lip of the vial.
