Book Description

Excerpt from American Nursery Company You will be interested to find in this, a new edition of our catalogue, many new, tried, and worthy species of recent introduction; also all of the old favorites in almost endless variety. The continued and rapid growth of our organization has indeed been gratifying, but based as it has been upon the sterling worth of our stock and service, and the resulting confidence of our customers, we feel, that in tendering our appreciation for past patronage, we need but submit our past record as our promise for the future. Our Bloodgood Nurseries, Flushing, N. Y., are historic. Established in 1790 they are the oldest continuing nurseries in America. Long Island is often called the Garden Spot of Amer ica, its diversified and extended native flora being far famed. Flushing, the oldest nursery center in the country, is thus especially favored by nature for producing sturdy stock. The nurseries are readily reached by the Long Island Railroad to Broadway Station. Entrance is on Broadway, the popular auto boulevard. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
