Rochester, NY Flower Delivery

Send flowers to Rochester, NY

Rochester, New York, has gone through a number of boom and bust periods. The city was developed following the American Revolution and was initially named Rochesterville and was built with a city plan for streets and use of the nearby Genesee River. The initial businesses were flour related.

The area also played a major part in the development of the Erie Canal and its link to the Hudson River. While this was a boon prior to mass transportation and the introduction of the railways, it soon became a drawback having a canal running through the middle of the city.

Rochester, at one time, was the largest flour manufacturer in the United States.

“By the mid-19th century, as the center of the wheat-processing industry moved west with population and agriculture, the city became home to an expanding nursery business, giving rise to the city's second nickname, the "Flower City." Large and small nurseries ringed the city, the most famous of which was started in 1840 by immigrants Georg Ellwanger from Germany and Patrick Barry from Ireland,” Wikipedia notes.

The city hosts Flower City Days at the Market - a spring event where locals and visitors can get ready for the upcoming planting season. The event provides not only the supplies you will need to grow an attractive and awe-inspiring garden. The city ensures there are a good number of knowledgeable experts on growing and maintaining gardens, who are there to share their insights for success in the garden.

Rochester has been home to some major US historical figures - abolitionist Frederick Douglass, Susan B Anthony and Emma Goldman in the political fields; George Eastman, John Jacob Bausch and Henry Lomb from the business arenas.
