VEST GROVE, PA. 



The Flower Town. 



West Grove, a town of 1,200 people, 

 situated on the Baltimore Central rail- 

 road forty miles from Philadelphia, is, 

 without doubt, the greatest flower town 

 in the United States, if not in the world. 



The establishment of Dingee & Conard 

 Co., now in the fifty-seventh year of its 

 commercial existence, is the parent plant. 

 It is located a short distance from the 

 town. It consists of seventy green- 

 bouses, numerous root-cellars and pack- 

 ing sheds and a large and well equipped 

 office building. It is a veritable sea of 

 glass. During the last two years a num- 

 ber of houses of steel construction have 

 been erected.' The surrounding grounds, 

 planted with every seasonable flower 

 from the early spring tulip to the late 

 dahlia and chrysanthemum, form a place 

 of many attractions. 



Boses constitute the chief specialty. 

 For side lines cannas, dahlias and shrubs 

 are grown. A large miscellaneous stock, 

 consisting of ferns, palms. Rex begonias 

 and novelties, is carried. Over 1,000 

 varieties of roses are grown, several fa- 

 mous sorts having originated here. They 

 are propagated from the bench and are 

 sold in' great quantity in one and two 

 year sizes. 



The Conard & Jones Co., an offshoot 

 of the former place, was established 

 about twelve years ago. The business 

 developed with such rapidity that twenty- 

 two large greenhouses and several root- 

 cellars are now required to house their 

 enormous stock. Antoine Wintzer, prob- 

 ably the ablest propagator in the country, 

 has charge of the place. Boses, cannas 

 and hardy shrubs form their specialties. 

 A visit to their trial grounds in August 

 will give a never-to-be-forgotten pleasure. 

 Acres of cannas, arranged systematically 

 in rows and plots, their t^ll, graceful 

 foliage surmounted by magnificent clus- 

 ters of bloom, meet the eye. The land- 

 scape is relieved by long rows of hydran- 

 geas, spiraeas and ornamental grasses. 



Of the minor floral concerns located 

 here, several are rapidly springing into 

 importance. Green & Baylis conduct a 

 thriving business in cut flowers. They 

 have a number of greenhouses, all de- 

 voted to the growing of carnations and 

 chrysanthemums. The fine quality of 

 their bloom has made them widely known 

 among commission men. Last year their 

 chrysanthemums graced several social 

 functions at Washington.
