What this record means
The record shows that the mark “MCBLOOMS THE GARDENER'S COMPANION” is dead, having been abandoned after a decision by the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board. The owner listed is PERSIMMON INC., a corporation organized in Canada, and the mark was filed on January 6, 1994 on the Principal Register under a foreign registration basis. The goods covered are body care products for gardeners, specifically soaps, body creams, lotions, bath/shower compounds, sunscreens and non‑medicated essential oils used in personal aroma therapy. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the cosmetics and cleaning category for gardening‑related personal care items. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “MCBLOOMS” or “GARDENER'S COMPANION” outside that specific product line. No enforcement activity such as oppositions or cancellations appears in the supplied history. The latest meaningful event was the abandonment in August 1999. For someone thinking of a similar name, the record suggests a notable risk if the new use falls within the same cosmetics and cleaning goods for gardeners.
