FLOWER POWER

What this record means

The record shows that “FLOWER POWER” was registered on the Principal Register on November 7, 1978, but the registration was cancelled on May 20, 1985 because the owner, American Home Products Corporation, failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The mark covered bowl cleaner and air freshener in class 3 cosmetics and cleaning goods. A new business using a similar name would face the closest concern if it sold or marketed cleaning products, especially bowl cleaners or air fresheners, because that is the exact scope of the cancelled mark. The cancellation does not mean the wording is free for all uses; it only removes the legal protection that was once in place for that specific category. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations beyond the Section 8 event appear in the supplied history. The latest meaningful status event is the May 20, 1985 cancellation. For someone considering a similar name, the risk is that using it for cleaning products could still raise a concern, while use in unrelated fields would be farther from the record’s scope.
