PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fresh flower transporting container and a lid used for the fresh flower transporting container which always keep supplying water for water retention to fresh flower in transportation and storage to prevent the fresh flower from being dried and withering, and are transported and stored in a horizontally loaded state with no leakage of the water for water retention to outside even when falling down.SOLUTION: The container includes a container body 10 provided with an opening formed in its upper surface, and a lid 2 for holding a bundle of fresh flowers in an upright state relative to the bottom surface of the container body 10 and preventing leakage of the water W from the container body 10 when falling down. A fresh flower holding cylinder 21 extending from a top surface part 20 into the container body 10 is disposed at the lid 2 so as to retain the whole quantity of the water W in a space between the container body 10 and the fresh flower holding cylinder 21 when falling down. The fresh flower holding cylinder 21 includes a holding cylinder support portion 23 formed of a hanging surface 24, and a chamfered portion 25 formed by chamfering a boundary part between the top surface part 20 and the holding cylinder support portion 23.COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT【課題】輸送時や保管時に生花に常時保水用の水を供給し続けて生花の乾燥や萎れを防止し、転倒させても保水用の水が外部に漏出することがなく、横積みの状態で輸送及び保管可能な生花輸送用容器および生花輸送用容器に用いられる蓋を提供する。【解決手段】上面に開口部を設けた容器本体10と、生花の束を容器本体10の底面に対して起立状態で保持するとともに、転倒時には容器本体10から水Wが漏出するのを防止する蓋2とを備え、蓋2に天面部20から容器本体10内へ延びる生花保持筒21を設け、転倒時、水Wの全量が、容器本体10と生花保持筒21との間の空間に滞留可能とさせ、生花保持筒21は、垂下面24からなる保持筒支持部23と、天面部20と保持筒支持部23との境界部分が面取りされた面取り部25とを備える。【選択図】 図2
