HISTORY
The company, founded by Sven Arthur Peterson in 1938
was originally located in Tewksbury, Mass., and was
primarily a Carnation growing operation. A few years later
the business expanded with new greenhouses in Lexington,
Massachusetts. The company was renown for its
carnations and introduced many new varieties including its
signature carnation the S. Arthur Sim variety, commonly
known as the peppermint carnation. Sven was president of
the New England Carnation Grower's Association and won
many awards for his propagation on new carnation
varieties. In 1954 Sven and his son Paul Peterson
expanded the company again in Delray Beach, Florida
where 15 acres of greenhouses were constructed.
Carnations, as well as potted mums, foliage hanging
baskets and vegetable seedlings were produced. By 1997
S. Arthur Peterson, Inc. had evolved into a floral bouquet
manufacturer and supplier of fresh cut flowers to the trade.
In 2004 the company moved to its current location in Boca
Raton, FL and now produces the freshest, most beautiful
bouquets and arrangements around. We also supply over
60 floral shops in the Southeast Florida area with fresh cut
flowers and greens on our refrigerated bucket trucks. The
company is still managed by the Peterson family, as cut
flowers are in our blood.
