HISTORY OF OUR BUSINESS 
Peter Bohlender Stayed At Home While Gold Miners Rushed 
West To California 




In 1849, the Same year in which gold was discoyv- 
ered in California, Peter Bohlender started working 
in a nursery near Dayton, Ohio. His natural love of 
trees and plants, his intimate knowledge of their proper ; 
planting and care, led him to the nursery business. 
So with ‘the smallest of shoestring beginnings he 
launched his career as-a nurseryman. 
The buildings were small and the market was 
restricted to fruit trees and a few ornamental shrubs. 
Slowly, but surely, business improved and the nursery 
expanded. People around the locality of the nursery 
found that they could depend on Peter Bohlender’s 
Selection of plants. TheSe people told their friends 
and the fame of the little nursery spread. 
Today in 1945 the small nursery has grown until. 
we ship hundreds of thousands of plants from coast 
to coast each year. Today, Peter Bohlender’s grand- 
sons, Thomas B. Kyle and Howard Kyle, the third 
consecutive generation of the immediate family, are 
sole owners and operators of the business. 
We attribute our success and growth to our location 
in the heart of the fertile Miami River valley of Cen- 
tral Ohio, where we have superlative conditions for 
the production of the finest plants. Because of our 
buildings and modern methods of operations Spring 
Hill is TODAY able to offer better plants, better 
service and better values for your money.
