This listing is for a vintage unused Marvel Flower Garden wax paper container. This container has a green and yellow background with flowers scattered around the center of it. The back of this container has the marquee "Marvel Flower Garden Watch it Grow!" as well as a detailed description of the contents and what to expect when they are used. At the bottom is says "Guaranteed to Grow! Indoor Garden Co. Barryton, Mich." (As the flower garden is quite old, we have a feeling the guarantee is no longer valid regardless)
The top lid is removable and features a lengthy directions list, three more pretty flowers, and reads:
Complete Indoor Garden
Just Moisten
Ready To Grow
Mixed Flowers 39 cents
This Lily-Nestrite container is made of sturdy, thick, wax paper. The bottom shows that it was made in the New York, N.Y. by the Lily-Tulip Cup Corporation.
This container would make a beautiful display piece in any home. For collectors or home decorators, it's difficult to find containers like this in such great condition, as they were originally meant to be thrown away after use.
