Henry Augustus Siebrecht

Henry Augustus Siebrecht (1849 – June 19, 1934) was a German immigrant to America who used his early horticultural training to become one of the top floral designers and horticulturalists in the United States.
Siebrecht is credited with having been the first florist to grow lilies of the valley in the winter in a greenhouse process he introduced in 1889. He was also credited with bringing the orchid into commercial use, which he introduced into wedding bouquets in the 1870s, and bringing Japanese and Chinese ginkgo trees into popularity.〔Obituary: “Henry A. Siebrecht Dies; Landscape Artist,” New York Times, June 20, 1934〕
==Early career==
In 1866, 17-year-old Siebrecht arrived in Hoboken, New Jersey. Due to the horticultural training he had received at the University of Göttingen he immediately found a job at Buchanan's nursery in Astoria, Queens. Just two years later Siebrecht had his own florist shop in Manhattan and was creating some of America's first and finest floral bouquets. He established another two stores along Manhattan's upscale Fifth Avenue. As the pioneering florist in the then-residential area above 23rd Street, Siebrecht earned the informal title as the "Father of Fifth Avenue." 〔(NY Times "H.A. SIEBREGHTDIES; LANDSCAPE ARTIST; Horticulturist, ffirst to Grow Lilies of the Valley in the' Winter Time, Was 85. LAID OUT NOTED GARDENS Took Active Part in Building Up Coney Island -- First Florist to Have Fifth Av. Shop" )〕 His neighbors and customers included such notables as Russell Sage, Andrew Carnegie, J. Pierpont Morgan, Ulysses Grant, P.T. Barnum and Boss Tweed. Many became lifelong clients and friends.
