George Taylor (gardener) : ウィキペディア英語版 | George Taylor (gardener)
George Taylor (February 12, 1803 − August 21, 1891) was an award-winning nurseryman from Scotland who emigrated to Kalamazoo, Michigan in 1855. There, he became known as George "Celery" Taylor because he introduced commercial celery growing to the United States. == Early life == George Taylor was born in the Scottish Borders on 12 February 1803. His parents were Andrew Taylor, a shepherd, and Violet Stevenson. As a child, Taylor had to watch over the sheep, often snaring rabbits and hares illegally to sell for one shilling and sixpence each, wages for a whole day’s work in those days. His parents were literate and he could already read the Bible when he started school aged seven.
