A flat trapezoidal container provides a generally frustoconical single cavity for snugly sheathing a flower pot. The container is specifically dimensioned sheath a flower pot so as either (a) to leave therebeneath, a surplus of film in an transition zone which is concealable under the flower pot, or (b) form a hexagonal gusset in the bottom. The container is made from two flat panels of heat-sealable film, each shaped in the general form of a trapezium; or from a single web folded double. The lower portion of the container is ornamentally imprinted along a border extending beneath a generally lateral line above the longitudinal axis of the web; and, with a marker in the upper portion, identifies the contents, or provides instructions for their use or care. When the cavity is distended by being partially filled, the entire container, except for a transition zone, presents a smoothly arcuate surface of the frustum of a cone. The lower exterior portion is continuously printed with ornamental design elements without an interruption in the printing, such as is present as an elongated blank rectangle in prior art bags. The transparent upper portion is free from an elongated portion of the printed image near the edges, as in prior art containers. A method is disclosed for forming the printed container which method requires discarding the material for more than one-half of one container for each container made by thermally sealing the equally, but oppositely angulated sides of the trapeziums, and the shorter of the remaining parallel sides.
