Abstract
A method for wrapping a wrapper about a floral grouping wherein the wrapper is a sleeve having a cinching tab or strip of bonding material or both, a reservoir disposed in the interior space of the sleeve, a closure flap for closing the sleeve and optionally a detaching element such as perforations for detaching a portion of the sleeve or sheet of material. The cinching tab is preferably attached near an edge of the sleeve. The cinching tab when present preferably has a bonding material disposed thereon which, when the cinching tab is pulled tightly about the wrapper, causes the wrapper to be crimped and tightly bound about the stems of the floral grouping.
