Serving the community of the greater Rochester area for many years, we are proud to have a location in a magnificent city such as Rochester, New York. Steeped in rich history, Rochester has been very closely connected to the Civil War Abolitionists, as well as being the center of flour milling in the mid 1800’s. As flour milling declined, the flower and nursery business boomed, calling for Rochester’s name as “The Flour City” to its current name of “The Flower City”.
We serve Albany, Buffalo, New Rochelle, Rochester, Schenectady Syracuse, Utica, Yonkers and more. Call us now.
