Abstract
A carton for packing and shipping produce such as asparagus, the carton being formed in two pieces or sections. The first section of the carton is a lower box body having a bottom, two opposed upstanding side walls, a rear wall, and a front panel hinged to the bottom of the lower box body and foldable to a position wherein it slopes inwardly from vertical to vary the cross sectional area of the interior of the carton from top to bottom thereby supporting the asparagus stalks. The second section of the carton is an upper box cover having a top, two side walls, a front wall and a back wall, being dimensioned to telescope over the lower box body so that the outside of the assembled carton has a rectangular prismatic configuration.
