FLOWERING FENCES

What this record means

The record shows that the application for “FLOWERING FENCES” is dead, having been abandoned on June 30 2006 after the applicant failed to respond to a non‑final Office action, and the owner listed is Floragem, LLC, a California corporation. The only goods covered are “LIVE PLANTS” in International Class 031, so the closest area of concern would be any other business offering live plants under a similar name; uses in unrelated categories such as fencing hardware or landscaping services fall farther from the scope shown here. Because the filing was on the Principal Register but never issued, the record does not give Floragem control over every use of the words “flowering” or “fences” in any context. The prosecution history notes the non‑final action mailed on December 2 2005 and the abandonment notice on June 30 2006, which are the latest meaningful status events, and no opposition, cancellation or court activity appears in the file. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan to market live plants under a comparable name.
