Abstract: The floral arrangement holder has a base which supports a foam block in contact with the upper surface of the base. Drain holes are provided so that any excess water can run into the hollow base portion. Recessed reservoir channels are provided in the upper surface of the base, to allow any excess water in one portion of the block to flow to a drier portion, and to allow water to wick upwardly into the block from the channels. A filling area extends outwardly from the base for convenient access, and has an upper surface which preferably is angled slightly downwardly towards the channels for better distribution of the water. The filling area also doubles as a convenient hand grip, by virtue of being provided with finger recesses. A clip arrangement holds the foam block in place. An elongated version of the holder holds two such blocks, and includes an extended end portion to provide greater-water storage capacity, particularly useful if the holder is suspended via an apertured tab at the opposite end.

Abstract: A floral display holder has a hollow body with a frontal recess for receiving a water-absorbing foam, and a manual pump to draw water from a lower portion defining a liquid reservoir. The floral display holder has U-shaped clips to secure the foam generally against a floor surface of the recess. The water drawn with the pump is directed onto the foam, thereby replenishing the foam with additional water.

Abstract: A dual dispenser dispenses both soap and fragrance for washrooms. The dispenser has a mounting plate for mounting on a surface in the washroom and has a lower support for a box containing a flexible bag of soap with the bag having a flexible tube extending out of the box. A container with a fragrance source is mounted in the top of the box and a fan is located thereabove which is driven by a small motor mounted on an upper support of the mounting plate. A battery is also located on the box adjacent the fragrance container. Switch contacts are in circuit with the motor and the battery for operating the motor and fan when the switch contacts are closed. A cover for the mounting plate has a hand-operated actuating plate which squeezes the tube to dispense soap and closes the contacts to operate the fan when the actuating plate is pushed, thus dispensing both soap and fragrance in a single motion.
