As you can see from the sign, more of the plants that belonged to Cornell Edwards, who opened The Flower Stall at 143 E. 13th St. in 1967, will continue to be distributed today...
I walk past his store nearly every day. I can't imagine the neighborhood without him. He was such a nice man and had such a beautiful spirit. I have a beautiful plant I bought from him last year and I always think of him when I see it. I'm glad to see that proceeds will benefit the Seneca Village Project - I did not know the history of Seneca Village until I saw the note on his store. I plan to buy some plants this weekend and hope others do as well. It's really going to a great cause.
