In 1874 John Lewis Childs arrived and began working as a seed salesman. John Lewis Childs bought a great deal of land in the area after building his own seed and bulb business and starting America’s first seed catalog business. Twice a year, Mr. Childs printed a seed catalog that had a circulation of over 500,000 plus he also printed, “The Mayflower,” a horticultural Magazine which went to all parts of the world. To promote his own business, Childs named the local streets after flowers and renamed the area Floral Park. The expansion of the Floral Park Post Office and nearby village businesses are attributed solely to the success of Childs’ business. When the local Post Office took the name Floral Park, the LIRR followed suit by changing the name of the local station to Floral Park in 1888. Formerly part of Queens, Floral Park became part of the new county of Nassau in 1899. It was incorporated as a village in 1908. Childs served as its first president starting that year.
In 1903 the village boasted more than 200 acres of Childs’ flower beds. The massive volume of his mail order business grew the local post office to such an extent that it drew comparisons with the post offices of Chicago, Baltimore, and Boston. Later on, he bought 800 acres in St. James, NY which is now known as Flowerfield.
