Abstract
A carton for packing and shipping asparagus is constructed from a single sheet of carton stock and includes a bottom, four side walls and a top in a substantially rectangular configuration. Inside the carton and adjacent one of the sidewalls is a partition reaching substantially from the bottom corner to the top of the carton. The partition slopes inwardly to provide an enlarged bottom area designed to accommodate the base portion of the asparagus stalks, and a restricted top area designed to support and protect the fragile top portion thereof.
