African Daisy (Osteospermum Cape Daisy™ Fire Burst), Sakata, even this registered trademark which I find no record of.

What next; Rose™, Daylily™!

I'm tempted to get rid of the ™.

I think this looks okay, Evan. The "Cape Daisy™ osteo" is the series name. Although, I think osteo probably doesn't belong.

Fire Burst is the trade name.

Sakost8433 is the cultivar name.

For once, I feel relieved that a company is actually doing this right!

My problem is with trademarking Common Names that have been in use forever. I question whether or not this type of trademark can be enforced.

Ahh, I completely missed that part. Right, you can't trademark something like "Cape Daisy". That's a common name. I now share your feelings on the matter.

I did an online search for this trademark and came up empty. But I did find where the PPAF was rejected just this month. This rejection was not final and could be change if the owner makes proper changes to the application on time.

Jay, your link takes me to a blank page.

This is the link to USPTO I had. http://appft1.uspto.gov/netacg....

How do the dates match?

My link takes you to the first page of the document. You should see navigation arrow at the top of the page.
The page should look like this.
