Sep 7, 2020Historically Speaking: Florists a big part of Dover - Seacoastonline.com
Over the years Dover has been known for many things -- calico cloth, woolen cloth, brick yards, shoes, electronics -- but not a great deal of notice has been given to its role as a producer of flowers. There is a substantial bit of history here.In the late 1880s, a man named Henry Johnson bought some land on the south side of Garrison Hill from Joseph Ham and built several greenhouses. On April 8, 1891 there was a fire and a good portion of the premises was destroyed or badly damaged. (Contemporary reports commented on the poor performance of the responding fire crews.)The business was then sold in 1893 to Charles Luke Howe. Howe had moved to Dover from Nashua several years previously where he had been involved in several floral enterprises. Upon arrival he opened the Sunnyside Conservatories on Rutland Street "a 4-minute walk from the Sawyer Depot."He abandoned this business in favor of the Garrison Hill location which, by 1905, he had turned into the largest greenhouse operation in the state, with 14 glass structures and several acres of outside plantings (he had...
Aug 3, 2020Willie Beaty, Sr. | Obituary | Valdosta Daily Times - Valdosta Daily Times
States Army Air Corps, which later became the Air Force. Upon returning to Valdosta after his military service, he earned a Certificate/Diploma in Brick Masonry from Valdosta Technical School. He went on to become a licensed brick mason contractor building many residential and commercial buildings in Georgia, Florida, and South Carolina. Some of his work included St. James Missionary Baptist Church in Valdosta, GA and the Marine barracks in Paris Island, SC, where he worked as a subcontractor. He trained and mentored many young men who went on to start their own businesses. Mr. Beaty was proud of the fact that he saved his money for years, and upon marrying his first wife, Mamie, he paid cash for their new home on Lake Park Rd in 1951. This shaped his theory on home ownership which was, "if you are paying on it, you don't own it... the bank does!" He spent the last 16 years of his life with his two children and their families in Northern Virginia. He joined Heritage Fellowship Church in Reston, VA. He enjoyed reading his Bible every day; going to church; shooting pool; vacationing with his family in Georgia; Florida; and the Caribbean; going to the Senior Center three times a week; and most of all, going out for ice cream! Mr. Beaty is survived by his daughter and son-in-law, Debra and Rochester Murphy of Great Falls, VA; his son, Willie E. Beaty, Jr., and his daughter-in-law, Della Sanford Beaty, of Ashburn, VA; his grand children: Claude Beaty Murphy of Great Falls, VA; and Aries Debra Michelle Beaty of Valdosta, GA; his great grand daughter, Kylie Beaty of Valdosta, GA; and a host of nieces and nephews. The Funeral Service for Mr. Beaty will be held on Tuesday, August 4, 2020, 11:00am, at Chestnut Grove Cemetery, 831 Dranesville Road., Herndon, VA 20170. Mr. Beaty was a kind and caring person. He always tried to help people in need. So, in keeping with his spirit, in lieu of flowers, the family asks that you donate funds to your local food bank or Church in his memory. Due to COVID 19, we are working on Live Streaming the services. Arrangements By: Lyles Funeral Service, Serving Northern Virginia, Eric S. Lyles, Director. Lic. VA, MD, DC. 1-800-388-1913

Aug 3, 2020Duluth's Western Garden Tour continues to bloom - Duluth News Tribune
Paving bricks lead visitors around the garden's many features. The first thing that grabs a visitor's eye is a large wooden pavilion that Pratt said used to be a hot tub and pool. "The pool was pretty much collapsed, so we decided to fill it in and build something new," Pratt said.

Most of Pratt's seating areas in his garden feature a fire pit or wood stove. Reclamation is a big running theme throughout the garden. Pratt likes to take leftover items and give them new life. One of the key flower features is planted in Pratt's first red wheelbarrow. He had to buy a new wheel for it because it kept deflating. "I'd bought it when I bought my first house back in the day," Pratt said. "We had to experiment to find plants that would grow in it, but it seems to be working. I think it's the perfect place for it."
Real and artificial flowers are located between rocks in Glen Pratt’s ga...
Mar 19, 2020AURORA OUTLIER: Southlands blooming among an industry of fading flowers - Sentinel Colorado
I think they are under attack by the internet,” he said. “There’s too many people shopping online and not supporting our brick and mortars.”
There are some similarities in strategy at the mostly open-air Southlands and Aurora’s indoor mall, the Town Center at Aurora, located near the Intersection of East Alameda Avenue and Interstate 225.
Both are regularly hosting events to keep folks coming into stores. Southlands created a popular “sensory-friendly Santa” event inDecember tailored for children and adults on the autism spectrum normally bugged by bright lights and too many kids. The mall also hosts holiday parades, which Hougen said he enjoys.
For its part, the Town Center is converting its old Sears space into an indoor sport emporium and separately hosting high school wrestling events that have been well-attended.
The sales tax revenue generated at these malls is crucial for the city, Hougen said.
In the Town Center, sales taxes businesses paid to the city of Aurora in 2018 passed a $5.8 million benchmark for the first time in 15 years, making the mall eligible for a significant tax rebate.
Southlands is regularly contributing more in sales tax revenue, reaching $11,420,746 in 2018 after a multi-year increase.
Feb 27, 2020Muncie Origins: Normandy Flower Shop continues family florist tradition - Ball State Daily News
We try [to keep supplies in stock.] I try more now than ever to carry everything there is. So many people, instead of just calling us, a brick and mortar actual flower shop, go through what we call order gatherers… They pretend to be flower shops, but they aren't even a flower shop. They're just getting your money.”
Even with the changing industry, Benken said she enjoys the challenge when someone gives the shop the creative freedom behind a flower arrangement.
“[I enjoy] when we can do something creative, and it’s not a picture of something [a customer] has seen online,” Benken said. “They give you some money, they give you a general idea and you just run with it.”
