Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A corsage mounting apparatus, which comprises:
 an elongated tubular support body with an internal cavity,
 wherein said tubular support body has openings to said internal cavity at both ends; 
   a safety pin in fluid connection with said elongated tubular support body.   
     
     
         2 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , further comprising at least one flower stem,
 wherein said at least one flower stem passes through said internal cavity of said elongated tubular support body.   
     
     
         3 . The apparatus of  claim 2 , further comprising said flower stem secured to said tubular support body. 
     
     
         4 . The apparatus of  claim 3 , further comprising said flower stem secured to said elongated tubular support body with florist's tape. 
     
     
         5 . The apparatus of  claim 1 ,
 wherein said elongated tubular support body is open only on one end.   
     
     
         6 . The apparatus of  claim 5 ,
 wherein said open end of said elongated tubular support body is fitted with a cap that seals around said open end of said tubular support body and around said flower stem to prevent liquid from escaping from said internal cavity of said elongated tubular support body.   
     
     
         7 . The apparatus of  claim 6 ,
 wherein said elongated tubular support body is a polymer.   
     
     
         8 . The apparatus of  claim 1 ,
 wherein at least one of said ends of said elongated tubular support member is angled.   
     
     
         9 . The apparatus of  claim 8 , further comprising at least one flower stem,
 wherein said at least one flower stem passes through said internal cavity of said elongated tubular support body.   
     
     
         10 . The apparatus of  claim 9 , further comprising said flower stem secured to said tubular support body. 
     
     
         11 . The apparatus of  claim 10 , further comprising said flower stem secured to said elongated tubular support body with florist's tape. 
     
     
         12 . The apparatus of  claim 11 ,
 wherein only one of said ends of said elongated tubular support body is open.   
     
     
         13 . The apparatus of  claim 12 ,
 wherein said only one open end of said elongated tubular support body is fitted with a cap that seals around said only one open end of said tubular support body and around said flower stem to prevent liquid from escaping from said internal cavity of said tubular support body.   
     
     
         14 . The apparatus of  claim 13 ,
 wherein said elongated tubular support body is a polymer.   
     
     
         15 . The apparatus of  claim 1 ,
 wherein a portion of said safety pin is molded into said elongated tubular support body.   
     
     
         16 . The apparatus of  claim 1 ,
 wherein said safety pin is fluidly connected to said elongated tubular support body with an adhesive.   
     
     
         17 . The apparatus of  claim 1 ,
 wherein said safety pin is fluidly connected to said elongated tubular support body with rivets.
