NEW SELF - WATERING FLOWER - BOXES 
Plants grow and thrive better in them, and 
blooms will be larger and foliage heavier, than in 
the ordinary surface-watered boxes. 
The boxes are provided with a self-watering 
device which renders attention unnecessary ex¬ 
cept at intervals of from I o to 20 days. They are 
made of strong galvanized iron and painted an 
attractive green. Through the tube in the corner 
water is poured into the reservoir ( e ) underneath 
the false bottom ( d ) which supports the soil (6). 
Sponges (ee) touch the extreme bottom of box 
and extend upward into the soil in which the 
flowers are planted, thus supplying water by sub¬ 
irrigation.
