Iron Self Watering Hanging Baskets. 



The ordinary hanging baskets are usually an abom- 

 ination when it comes to watering them on account of 

 the drip, in consequence they are often allowed to " dry 

 out" to the detriment of the plants. The iron Self 

 Watering Hanging Baskets "never leak a drop" and do 

 not need water oftener than once a week, and plants 

 thrive in them. 



Our prices do not include chain. We will supply a 

 strong coppered steel chain for this purpose at 2§ cents 

 per foot, with suitable hooks. In ordering chain, mea- 

 sure the distance from point of suspension to where you 

 want the top of basket and order four times that amount. 



IRON SELF WATERING WINDOW BOXES. 



These are made of sheet 

 iron, galvanized and fin- 

 ished on the outside in green 

 enamel. They are very 

 durable, rust proof and 

 positively will not leak. 



The crowning merit of 

 these boxes however, is 

 the self watering feature. 

 This is accomplished by 

 a false bottom below which 

 the water is contained it 

 being poured in through a 

 tube in the corner that 

 projects from the rim to 

 the bottom. The false bot- 

 tom has holes in it in which 

 are inserted small sponges. 

 These absorb the water and 

 it is drawn up by the soil, 

 keeping it evenly moist for 

 a week or more before the 

 water requires replenish- 

 ing, thus the plants do 

 not dry out from neglect 

 and thrive and bloom with 

 unusual luxuriance. 



ORNAMENTAL SELF-WATERING IRON WINDOW BOX. 



Note: The " Plain " self watering window Boxes and Hanging Baskets have a smooth surface — 

 enameled green, the " ornamental" boxes have a design pressed in the metal which greatly improves 

 the effect.
