A container for shipping and/or display of flowers includes a watertight or water-resistant inner receptacle for holding flowers and water; an outer shipping and display sleeve which protects the flowers and inner receptacle during shipping and display; and a holding unit which supports the inner receptacle within the outer sleeve at least during shipping. These components may be made of paperboard (e.g., corrugated cardboard) if desired. For shipping, the inner receptacle (with flowers and water) may be placed in the holding unit, which may then be placed in the outer sleeve for shipping purposes. Upon arrival, the holding unit and inner receptacle may be removed from the outer sleeve, which may be converted into a display pedestal for the holding unit and inner receptacle if desired.
