ABSTRACT:
A square RSC carton for potted plants and flowers to be used for shipping the potted item in the carton to the retail store, and for display of the potted item at the retail store. The top flaps are perforated for removal of arcuate portions of the top flaps and form a circular rim defining an aperture through which the flower pot is placed for support of its flange on the top flaps at the circular rim. "Pop-in" segments are formed across the corners of the adjacent side panels by parallel lateral slits and parallel vertical hinges enabling reversing the structure to support the weight of the flower pot by the top flaps. The top flaps are also infolded at second fold lines to suspend the flower pot below the top end of the carton thereby hiding the pot inside the display and showing only the flowers or plant.
