Abstract: A method for fabricating a flower sleeve includes defining slits in an upper sleeve part and forming a reserved part between the upper sleeve part and an edge, combining the upper sleeve part of non-elongatable material with a lower sleeve part of non-elongatable material, cutting the combined upper and lower sleeve parts and simultaneously engaging lateral edges of the upper sleeve part and the lower sleeve part by heat fusion; and cutting both the upper and lower sleeve parts to form a wave-like cut that corresponds to the slits in the upper sleeve part to separate the upper sleeve part from the reserved part yet maintain engagement of the lower sleeve part with the reserved part.

Abstract: A flower sleeve includes an upper sleeve part of non-elongatable material and a lower sleeve part of elongatable material. The lateral edges of the upper sleeve part and the lower sleeve part are connected by heat fusion. Each of the upper sleeve part and the lower sleeve part has a tear line formed adjacent to a longer upper edge thereof Alternatively, the flower sleeve includes an upper sleeve part of non-elongatable material, a lower sleeve part of non-elongatable material, a first layer of elongatable material sandwiched between upper ends of the upper and lower sleeve parts, and a second layer of elongatable material sandwiched between lower ends of the upper and lower sleeve parts. The first and second layers of elongatable material are adhered to the lower sleeve part. Heat fusion is applied to connect the lateral edges of the upper and lower sleeve parts and the lateral edges of the layers of elongatable material.
