Scope and content
Customers peruse the outdoor displays at the newly opened Eric Hayes Nursery in Purdy. Plants are neatly organized in large rectangular boxes or a more open array of greenery. Architect Marshall Perrow designed both the covered outdoor sales building (not pictured here) and the layout of trees and shrubs. The nursery held its grand opening on March 22, 1958. It is run by part-owner Eric Hayes, a professional English gardner and member of the Royal Horticultural Society of England. It is possible that the large two-story Dutch colonial home shown in the background is the Hayes residence. Photograph ordered by the Eric Hayes Nursery. (TNT 3-21-58, A-9)
