Ken's Greenhouse started with my wife Velma and i in 1972. Our first building was 8'x16', sold out of two barns, and displayed plants in the driveway. At first we only sold annuals and made up combination pots for the cemetery. Our son Mark would deliver planters or grave blankets to the cemetery. During the first few years I would get flowers from my dad who owned Porter's Greenhouse on the corner of Flushing and Lavelle Road.
We picked up a lot of customers from there. Velma and I would drive to Saginaw to get plants from Keit's or Stormer's Greenhouse, stay the night, and then drive home the next day. We did this for several years. In the winter we would make grave blankets and wreaths. Velma would make them by hand and then decorate.
