A floral delivery box apparatus which provides protection of a floral arrangement associated therewith from being damaged while carried or damaged from tipping during delivery and further allows for floral wrapping thereof, composed of a box member and a base member. The base is provided with a plurality of wings which are connected by stapling to the side walls of the box. The box is configured to receive the pot of a floral arrangement, and the base is configured to provide a planar surface having an area much larger than that of the box. In this regard, the box serves as a receptacle to restrain lateral movement of the floral arrangement with respect to the base, and the base serves as an anti-tipping member, where a sufficiently large lever arm between the center thereof and the edge of the base is such that the floral arrangement is immune to tipping over during normally encountered inertial forces of transportation by a motor vehicle. The material of choice for the base and the box is stiff flat corrugated paper stock material having pre-cut edges and pre-formed fold-lines. Preferably, the stock material of the box is provided with a pair of slots in the bottom wall adjacent opposing side walls for receiving therethrough the wings of the base.
