Flaming flower rose, flaming flower cone, chiminea and chimney chum and chimney chum wrap firestarters

Abstract

These firestarters comprise parts of the dead yucca Whipplei plant and the folicles from the Magnolia Grandiflora tree, wicking, wax and fabric. The inner core along with the hard outer shell of the yucca Whipplei stalk, the dead basal leaf rosette of the yucca Whipplei and the Magnolia folicle used with a yucca Whipplei stalk are all very conducive to use in a formula to develop a firestarter. The use of these all natural plant materials allow for the making of different firestarter forms and enhance the unique nature of these firestarters. My method of construction include ing the use of candle wax, fabric, wicking and the properties of the yucca Whipplei and Mag nolia tree folicles produce a flame when ignited that will last from 15 minutes to 30 minutes. The firestarters of this invention finds utility as an igniter for natural wood logs in fireplaces, chimineas and wood stoves without the usual appearance of a common firestarter. The bum time of these firestarters is sufficient to ignite natural wood logs without the use of kindling or newspapers.

1 . What I claim as my invention is the discovery of the use of the all natural properties of the dead yucca Whipplei and the folicles from the Magnolia Grandiflora, and the method of developing these properties into a firestarter that is environmentally friendly and has the unique appearance of a flower or decorative log. These forms produce a 15 to 30 minute intense flame with no oils or chemicals.  
     
     
         2 . A firestarter according to  claim 1  wherein the dead basal rosette leaves of the yucca Whipplei are fastened together and stems wrapped in fabric creating the appearance of a flower. Wicking is added and the unit is covered with several coatings of either paraffin, bees or candle wax at different temperatures  
     
     
         3 . A firestarter according to  claim 1  wherein the upper stem of the dead flower stalk of the yucca Whipplei is wrapped in fabric and a folicle from the Magnolia Grandiflora is inserted on top creating the appearance of a flower. Wicking is added and the unit is covered with several coatings of either paraffin, bees or candle wax at different temperatures.  
     
     
         4 . A firestarter according to  claim 1  wherein the approx. middle portion of the dead flower stalk of the yucca Whipplei is cut into various lengths. Then {fraction (1/16)}th inch wide cuts around the diameter are made into the stalk which acts as a conduint. It is then soaked in melted paraffin, bees or candle wax. Let cool, then cover with several more coatings of wax at different temperatures. Wicking is added.  
     
     
         5 . A firestarter according to  claim 1  wherein the approx. middle portion of the dead flower stalk of the yucca Whipplei is cut into various lengths. It is then soaked in melted paraffin, bees or candle wax. The entire unit is again covered two more times with wax at various temperatures. It is then wrapped with tapestry fabric. Add wicking and again cover most of the unit with wax. It has the appearance of a elegant log.
