I keep running across off hand references to a flower market conducted at
(I think) the south end of Union Square in NYC in the 1870's. I have the
impression that it was only held in the spring, but I can't find any
detailed description or discussion of the flower sales in the material I've
seen on Union Square.

Anyone have any information or source suggestions?


I'd be very grateful

Emily Leonard
