Claims29
A method for providing a decorative covering for a floral grouping comprising the steps of:
- providing a sheet of polymer material, wherein the polymer material is at least one of a renewable polymer material and a biodegradable polymer material, and wherein the sheet of polymer material has an upper surface and a lower surface;
- providing a floral grouping having at least one of a bloom portion and a stem portion;
- and
- wrapping the sheet of polymer material about the floral grouping to provide the decorative covering for the floral grouping.

A method for forming a decorative covering for a floral grouping, comprising the steps of:
- providing a sleeve initially comprising a flexible collapsed piece of material that is openable in the form of a substantially tubular structure, the sleeve having an upper end, a lower end, an outer peripheral surface, an inner peripheral surface and an inner retaining space, the sleeve formed of a polymer material wherein the polymer material is at least one of a renewable polymer material and a biodegradable polymer material;
- providing a floral grouping having at least one of a bloom portion and a stem portion;
- disposing at least a portion of the floral grouping into at least a portion of the inner retaining space of the sleeve, thereby providing a decorative covering for the floral grouping.
A method for providing a decorative covering for a flower pot, comprising the steps of:
- providing a sheet of polymer material, wherein the polymer material is at least one of a renewable polymer material and a biodegradable polymer material, and wherein the sheet of polymer material has an upper surface and a lower surface;
- providing a flower pot having an upper end, a lower end, an outer peripheral surface, an inner peripheral surface and an inner retaining space;
- disposing the lower end of the flower pot on the upper surface of the sheet of polymer material;
- forming the sheet of polymer material about the outer peripheral surface of the flower pot to provide the decorative covering.

A method for providing a decorative covering for a flower pot, comprising the steps of:
- providing a preformed flower pot cover formed of polymer material, wherein the polymer material is at least one of a renewable polymer material and a biodegradable polymer material, wherein the preformed flower pot cover has an open upper end, a closed lower end, an inner peripheral surface, an outer peripheral surface and an inner retaining space;
- providing a flower pot having an upper end, a lower end, an outer peripheral surface and an inner peripheral surface;
- and
- disposing the flower pot into the inner retaining space of the preformed flower pot cover to provide the decorative covering.
