Calgary woman finds heirloom seeds in attic, hopes to grow vintage flowers - CBC.ca

England in 1904. And he was not your garden-variety gardener. "His house had about three lots, so he grew flowers and vegetables, which he sold at his store ... T.S. Purver, Seedsman & Florist," Arena said. "He sold ice cream, tobacco, plants and seeds. I still have the scale that he weighed the seeds on to sell. At the back of his house he had a shed, and all the walls were covered with first- and second-place certificates and his red and blue ribbons." The shop was called T.S. Purver, Seedsman & Florist. The items for sale included ice cream, tobacco, plants and seeds, as well as flowers grown in the owner's home garden in Crescent Heights. (Submitted by Judy Arena) Arena's family has carried on the gardening tradition with pride, she said, always growing plants from seeds. "My grandfather taught my father Clayton how to garden, how to grow plants from seeds," she said, adding that his house was in Crescent Heights, known at the time as the Village of Crescent Heights. Judy Arena says her great grandfather Thomas S. Purver won many accolades, blue ribbons and trophies for his plants and seeds. (Submitted by Judy Arena) When my great grandfather died in 1951, he would have put those seeds in his cellar, where it would be cool," she said. "And they probably stayed there until my great grandmother passed away in 1967. And my dad has taken care of my great grandfather's house, and his gardens, for my grandmother. "So, when she passed away, he would have taken that little wooden box and put it in, I guess, in his garage." Moore has owned the house in Ramsay — one of Calgary's oldest neighbourhoods — for six years. "I'm so happy to hear about the history of the house," she said. "When we did have a chance to talk, she told me about how her parents built this house, and told me the history and, and it was so fun to hear. Kind of the origins of my house and her story, and now it's our family's story." img alt srcset="https://i.cbc.ca/1.5518509.1585788322!/fileImage/httpImage/image.jpg_gen/derivatives/original_300/thomas-purver.jpg 300w, https://i.cbc.ca/1.5518509.1585788322!/fileImage/httpImage/image.jpg_gen/derivatives/original_460/thomas-purver.jpg 460w, https://i.cbc.ca/1.5518509.1585788322!/fileImage/httpImage/image.jpg_gen/derivatives/original_620/thomas-purver.jpg 620w, https://i.cbc.ca/1.55185... https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/heirloom-seeds-attic-vintage-tray-florist-purver-1.5518367

Okanagan florists busy during pandemic, some busier than ever - iNFOnews

COVID-19 pandemic has brought hard times onto some local businesses, Okanagan flower shops are busy — some say even busier than ever. The period around Easter and Mother’s Day is typically busy for florists, and despite current circumstances, this year is no exception. At Burnett’s Florist in Kelowna, business has been steady. “Our Easter was more busy than it usually is, and we’re hoping Mother’s Day is the same," florist Galena Clancy said. Kelowna’s Funky Petals, Harris Flower Shop in Vernon and Newell Flower Shop in Kamloops are all busy during the pandemic as well. "I think it's mostly because people are kind of communicating from a distance with flowers," Clancy said. Harris Flower Shop's Brenda Gedaschke says that many of her customers want to send flowers for birthdays, or just to cheer people up.  Florists have shifted to accommodate current public health orders, offering online ordering and contactless delivery. Harris Flower Shop has even installed an honour bar outside their store, where customers can pick up arrangements and leave money in a locked collection box. “(The honour bar) has been spectacularly well received,” said Gedaschke, adding that there has only been one customer who didn’t leave enough money for their bouquet. The real challenge during the pandemic has been getting flowers from suppliers, Gedaschke said. "At this point everything is limited,” she said. “A lot of the import stuff, up until recently,... https://infotel.ca/newsitem/okanagan-florists-busy-during-pandemic-some-busier-than-ever/it72772
