Abstract (en)

A flower pack comprises a water-retaining medium (10) into which the stems (12) are inserted, and a wrapping (14,18) which both encloses the water-retaining medium and also encircles and protects the greater part of the stems. The wrapping preferably comprises a first sheet-form piece (14) of sort, waterproof plastics material which defines a bag for the medium (10) and has a collar (16), and a second sheet-form piece (18) of relatively stiff, crisp plastics material. The two sheets (14,18) may be heat sealed at the collar (16).
