A covering for use with a pot having a floral grouping disposed therein, the pot having a top, a bottom, and an outer peripheral surface, the covering comprising:
- a pot cover having a top, a closed bottom, an outer peripheral surface and a pot receiving space shaped and adapted to receive the pot, the pot cover comprising:
- a base portion for covering at least a substantial portion of the outer peripheral surface of the pot disposed in the pot receiving space of the pot cover, the base portion having an upper end;
- and
- a skirt portion attached to the upper end of the base portion so as to extend from the upper end of the base portion;
- and
- an upper sleeve portion extending from the skirt portion of the pot cover, the upper sleeve portion being sized to substantially surround and encompass the floral grouping disposed within the pot when the pot is disposed within the pot receiving space of the pot cover, and wherein the upper sleeve portion of the covering and the skirt portion of the pot cover have a plurality of angularly arranged perforations disposed therebetween whereby the upper sleeve portion is detachable from the skirt portion by tearing along the angularly arranged perforations, thereby forming a non-linear outer perimeter of the skirt portion of the pot cover of the covering.
