Moon's hardy trees & plants for every place & purpose / the William H. Moon Co.
No full textAnnual Established 1872 by William H. Moon, incorporated in 1890. Purchased the Samuel C. Moon nursery in 1911. Located in Chesapeake City, Maryland, since 1989 under the leadership of John Pursell. The legacy of the nursery goes back to 1767, when James Moon sold apple and pear trees in what would become Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Moon's son Moses and grandson James continued selling fruit trees. By the mid-1800's, great grandson Mahlon Moon was growing trees full-time on 40 acres that he called Morrisville Nursery. In 1872 his sons William and James founded the William H. Moon Company. William was president of the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society, founder and first president of the National Nurserymen's Association, and an organizer of the Ornamental Growers' Association. William's sons Henry T. and J. Edward continued in the business. A Japanese beetle infestation, the death of J. Edward Moon and the stock market crash in the 1920's brought hard times, and the nursery went bankrupt in 1936. Most of the land went to real estate development, and Hiram Rickert purchased the rest and continued to operate a nursery as a "successor to Moon's." In the 1960's, Richard H. Washburn bought the land from Hiram Rickert for development, and Walter C. Flowers bought the Moon and Rickert names for a new business, and in 1971 revived the nursery.
