Pansy Bed With Five Thousand Plants On Miller Farm
The engravure shows a vast pansy bed on Enos Miller’s Lititz area farm along Kissel Hill and Millport road. With around 5000 pansy stalks and up to 75 flowers per stalk, visitors marvel at the colorful riot while Miller expands seed sales and plans a greenhouse. He began with thirteen plants, selects top colors, and now sells seed to seed houses and thousands of plants locally. He expects about ten pounds of seed valued near $500 this season and grows other flowers for Lancaster market on under twelve acres. Neatness and use of home seeds guide his farming, with scallops and asters among his key varieties.
