    Abstract: A florist's implement for temporarily stabilizing a flower or plant container or the like during transport is disclosed. The implement includes first and second square sheets of a flexible material hingedly connected to one another such that the sheets may be folded into superimposed juxtaposition to provide upper and lower sheets. The upper sheet is provided, on its upper face, with a series of scores in a predetermined pattern. There is first arranged a grid of scores equally spaced between and parallel to the square edges to obtain an array of squares. The number of scores is selected to obtain a junction of two mutually perpendicular scores at the center of the square sheet. The single central score which is directed generally normal to the hinge side of the sheet is heavier than the scores to which it is parallel and perpendicular and is sufficiently heavy as to permit ready manual separation along its length by hand.
